My heart breaks for Gary and Erin as it's truly heartbreaking to hear about Lynn's passing as she will be missed. I enjoyed working with Lynn for 9 years as she was always cheerful, friendly, welcoming, willing to help, insightful, non judgmental, thoughtful, smart, caring, upbeat, positive, hard working, comforting, easy- going, humble, and had a sweet smile and laugh that would brighten up a room. In many conversations with Lynn it was obvious she was a Christian but also a loving, dedicated, selfless, and giving daughter, wife, and mom. Lynn was a sweetheart and such a blessing to be around. She had so many admirable qualities that I wanted to aspire to have. Sad she's no longer on this earth to hear how she lived her life was a testimony to me and I'm sure to so many others. I'm thankful for meeting Lynn and my memories of her. She was a one of a kind blessing. God bless you, Gary and Erin, cherish and share your memories of her and find comfort knowing her sweet smile is brighter than ever. Love to you and your family. "Annie Oakley " Ann Chapman
