Tributes for allegedly murdered mum, funds being raised for grieving sons

Heartbreaking messages are continuing to pour in for a mother who was allegedly murdered by her ex-husband.

The devastated partner of a Perth mother, who was allegedly murdered by her ex-husband, has vowed to love her “until I take my last step on this planet”, as donations continue to pour in for her grieving sons.

Paul Anthony Cannon, 55, has been charged with murdering Lynn Marie Cannon, 51, at a property on Hardcastle Ave in Landsdale on the night of December 5.

Tributes have been pouring in for Ms Cannon, who was a popular hairdresser, with a GoFundMe page set up to raise money for her funeral and to support her two sons.

“I will love you and honour you, Lynn, until I take my last step on this planet,” her partner Gaz Smith wrote on the page.

“Then we will be once again together in one another’s arms.

“To think we were planning our future together, but now we will (be) attending your funeral. You are irreplaceable.”

Ms Cannon’s niece, Jessica Holmes, created the fundraiser, which has so far raised more than $22,000.

She described Ms Cannon as a “loving, caring mother-of-two, cherished daughter, beloved sister” and the “favourite aunty to many”.

One person wrote alongside their donation: “Lynn was such an amazing, beautiful, caring, kind and generous person, and was always so much fun to be around. She taught me so much over the years and I will miss her dearly.”

Another person wrote: “Lynn was so proud of her boys. She loved showing me photos as they grew. She was particularly chuffed when they got taller than her.”

Mr Cannon was treated in hospital under police guard after he allegedly tried to take his own life that night.

He remains in custody and is scheduled to face Stirling Gardens Magistrates Court on January 18.
