Auntie Lynn was such a great aunt. Ever since I can remember she has been laughing and smiling at me. I have fond childhood memories of my parents taking me for a visit to her house. She will be greatly missed. Uncle Mitch, Lori and Stephen I will keep you in my prayers. With love, Joanne

Lynn (Mrs. Z to me) was like a second mother. Her and Mitch's home were also open. As a high school and college student I can remember countless times raiding the refrigerator knowing she was always keeping itwell stocked with goodies. She always left my mail neatly on a dolly on the hutch in the family room. She gave me invitations to the family gatherings which were happily accepted. That welcoming attitude was further extended through the years to me wife and me. As evidence, Corally and I often dropped by on Chrismas Eve to share the season with her and Mitch.
My wife and I are sorry that Mitch has lost his life's partner and has endured much pain the last couple years.
With hearfelt sympathy,
Brad & Corally Littrell

Mitch, I want to express my deep sympathy for your loss of Lynn. You and Mrs.Z were my family while Stevie and I were at URI. I feel like I lost my second Mom. I know from keeping in touch with Steve that things were tough for the past few years and you both were always in my thoughts and prayers. She is in a better place now. I wish I could there to share with everyone the many memories. Take care of yourself. Love to all. Don Lan
