It's been a very long time since Lynne and I were friends. I have many happy memories playing at her house just 2 doors down. Only girl I knew at the time that had a Barbie and Ken
. Great fun! Loved her cat Puff and singing in my back yard on top of the swingset. God bless her and her dear sister Nancy.
