She then returned to Ontario where she made residence on a farm outside Omemee, later moving into the town of Omemee. During her time there she opened "The Mousetrap Cheese Shop" and "Care and Share", a community outreach clothing shop. After all of her kids had moved out, Lynette relocated to Bobcaygeon to settle down with her husband Eric in a fishing hut they converted to their retirement cottage. During her time in the Bobcaygeon community she volunteered at Pinecrest, Case manor, Victoria Retirement Suites and was a board member for the Bobcaygeon Helps Food Bank.

Lynette loved attending the Bobcaygeon fair every year with her family, finding special enjoyment in the horse pulls and with the Clogging Grandmothers.
