She enjoyed socializing with her friends, movies, reading and having a good time. She liked to gamble and was particularly lucky at bingo. Lynn valued friends and was always making new ones.

Memories
From Beth Sherry
I was so sorry to read about Lynn's death. We have been friends for several years, having met when she worked at the title company and I was in banking, but had unfortunately lost touch. I enjoyed many fun lunches with Lynn, and always relished hearing about her escapades. My heartfelt sympathies to Allen and family.

So sorry to hear of Lynn's passing. I met her when I worked Bingo for years. She was a real sweetheart and a lot of fun to be around--she could always make me laugh. Sympathy to Alan and DeLynn and family. She will be missed.
From Kim Roberts
I am so glad I was able to spend some time with her in recent months. It was such a pleasure to see how much she enjoyed cruising. It was great to watch her enjoy all the food and entertainment they had on the cruise ship. She was such a great person and I will miss having her around. My sympathy to all her family and friends.
From Darlene Dugger
I'll really miss her. We had some great times together over the years. When she moved in, she planned to stay for only 2 or 3 months but I had the pleasure of her company as a roommate for 10 years. On our cruise, we played bingo and she made sure to make it to the casino . So glad we could do this together.
My sympathy and prayers to her family.
