Lynn Carroll was a sweet person. She represented me twice...once in 97 again in 04. I'll never forget our last conversation during my last case. (; I often hear her words replaying in my head with her advice. (;

Lynn Carroll will forever be missed and loved. Memories of vacations to Italy, France, Spain and Mexico with her will always be in my heart. Fond memories of her in Tokyo, Puerto Rico, and The Big Easy will forever live with me. She loved to travel and more than anything she loved to laugh. Death leaves a heartache no one can heal. Love leaves a memory no one can steal.

Lynn was one of my best friends, having met in law school, and practiced in the same area of law since then. I will miss her forever, as will her sons, Robert and James Carroll. Rest in peace, my friend.
