Funeral arrangements announced for slain Traynor family members

Funeral arrangements have been announced for the four family members who were slain in their Oshawa home earlier this month.

The Oshawa Funeral Home says on its website that a drive past visitation for Chris Traynor, his sons Bradley, 20, and Joey, 11, and his daughter Adelaide, 15, will held on Wednesday at 10 a.m.

A private funeral and interment will be held the following day.

Loretta Traynor, the children’s mother and Chris’s wife, was seriously injured in the Sept. 4 mass shooting.

A fourth child, Sam, wasn’t home at the time of the incident but is now by his mother’s side.

Durham Regional Police say the killer, Mitchell Lapa, 48, of Winnipeg, was a relative of the family and an “uninvited person” to the home.

The 48-year-old, who family and friends have identified as Loretta Traynor’s brother, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
