Mrs Lynn - your bright smile and gracious heart will be missed. You were such a presence in my childhood - your kindness was infectious and made me want to do more. In fact, there was a time when I helped you & Mr Lynn with some lawnwork - when I went home, my mom asked when I was going to do the same for them! I laugh at that now, but you always treated us like we were your family - sharing your home, homemade rhubarb pies, and that swimming pool! Even when I went off to college, you still remembered me. Even in later years, I would look first for the birthday card from your address & grin ear to ear as you continued the tradition of taping a shiny new quarter inside, somehow knowing that this little reminder of my childhood experience with you & your family would always bring a smile to my face.
You continue to inspire us all with your legacy of kindness, thoughtfulness and generosity. I am blessed to have known you and will miss you dearly.
