Heaven has gained a new angel with wings of gold. Lynn was my very first influence in Occupational Therapy in Cuyahoga Falls. I will forever remember her as a positive and fun mentor who helped shape my career in therapy. To her family, please know that she touched countless lives and her legacy will live on.

Lynn was a special friend to me while I worked at Altercare of Cuyahoga Falls. She made me feel so welcome the first day I worked there and continued to be one of the kindest people I could ever know. Lynn, I will miss you! Nanci Ramsell

We are so very shocked and deeply saddened when we learned of Lynn's passing. I will cherish our long-lasting friendship that we had from middle school years on up. We had some wild and crazy fun way back when and you were the best roomie a girl could ever ask for! Regretfully, as we both started our families and lived our own busy lives, we only got to see each other occasionally. I will miss you terribly, but I know, we will see each other again, soon enough.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the family.

To My Friend that I fondly refer to as 'Lynnie Lou'. You added laughter to my day. Your positive attitude surrounded me and others. You always had kind words of encouragement for me when work got crazy. Loved when you would stop by the office and say, "What Do You Know?". We'd laugh. Thank you for all the people you helped, and for being such a great person. You'll be a beautiful angel.
