R.I.P Lynn Faulds Wood.

Very sad to see that the BBC presenter and journalist Lynn Faulds Wood has died at the age of 72.
She suffered a massive stroke last night and a subsequent bleed on the brain and passed away this morning, according to the BBC report.

R.I.P. Lynn.

Missed as an avid Nationwide viewer and her advocacy of consumer rights was an influence on my being involved in the C.A.B. R.I.P. Lynn.

I just heard on the news a short while ago that Lynn and her husband were outside clapping for the NHS at 8-pm last night. So, so sad!

Always loved Nationwide and Lynn (and the team) did a lot to change laws and raise standards when it came to protecting us, the public. Rest in peace, Lynn.

What a real shame. She had years of serious health issues and met each one with incredible bravery. Total respect. R.I.P. Lynn Faulds Wood. :cry:
