Board of Directors 2021
Executive
Lynne Funnell, President
I was born and raised in Ottawa to two loving parents and I have four older brothers. After completing my university degree from Ottawa University, I moved to Kingston in 1975. I married Bill Funnell in 1976 and am the mother to three children; Jeff, Jennifer and Shelly and the Nana to 7 beautiful grandchildren.
I worked at MDS Labs (Lifelabs) for many years. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2002 and joined BCAK in 2007. In 2009, I became a member of the board and then moved to the executive committee. This is my second year as President.
I enjoy walking, hiking and looking after the grandkids.
