Lynn Allison PERKINS "Send me any old card you find in a drawer - - except a condolence card" Lynn Perkins, age 72, died at home on March 30, 2012. Her passing is grieved by her family, her many friends, her life partner of 26 years and many area bookstores. She will be missed. She would prefer not to be mourned. Born December 28, 1939, Lynn was a lifelong and fiercely proud, Seattleite. She retired from the Boeing Company in 2004. Defined by the beliefs that punctuality should never be a promise, that laughter strong and sustained is a staple and that individuality should always be embraced, Lynn's life inspired those around her to be true to themselves. That's a tremendous gift. Lynn is survived by her life partner Barbara Vanoski, her sister Jeanne Uhles, her daughter and son-in-law Alicia and Michael McGee, her daughter and son-in-law Katherine and Rod O'Brien, six grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Lynn was preceded in death by her daughter Tracy Perkins, her brother Robert Allison, and her sister Sue Linnabary. Sign Lynn's on-line Guest Book at www.Legacy.com.

Lynn - It was a true gift to be able to spend almost half of my life with you. The sparkle in your eyes and your smile and laugh will be held tenderly in my heart until we can be together again. I will love you always. Barb

Lynn's warm infectious smiles and her laughter will always be remembered. She was always fun to be around. She will be missed at our DUBS group meetings and picnics for sure. The warmth of the candle's flickering flame will always remind us of her. All my thoughts and prayers to all those who will miss her in their lives.
