Daily’s editor pays tribute after photographer’s death aged 58

Lynne KinderA photographer who contributed to a regional daily has died of cancer aged 58.

Tributes have been paid to Lynne Kinder, whose work regularly appeared in York daily The Press.

Linda, pictured, had been a founder member of The Press Camera Club for amateur photographers.

She was first diagnosed with stage three bowel cancer in 2017 and had an operation to remove a tumour, followed by six months of chemotherapy.

However, a follow-up scan in November 2019 revealed a tumour in Lynne’s bowel and one on the peritoneum wall.

She died in the early hours of 18 January.

Press editor Nigel Burton said: “Such sad news. Our thoughts are with Lynne’s family at this awful time.”

Lynne is survived by husband David, her mother Sally, her sister Fran, and several step-children and grandchildren.
