Not sure what to say?

My memories of Lynn continue to bring a smile to my face. As a family-law attorney, he could have been tightly wound and closed. Instead, he approached everyone with openness and a sense of humor that helped us take time to understand our cases and not lose perspective. His was a brilliant approach to practicing law and living life. He was a zealous advocate, a gracious mentor, and a wonderful person.













I just learned of Lynn's passing. My deepest condolences to his family. I will always remember his warm heart and relaxed sense of humor.

I was saddened to learn of Lynn's passing. I ask the family to accept my heartfelt sympathy. I have many fond memories of Lynn. Judges, opposing counsel, clients, colleagues and court staff all admired Lynn's zealous advocacy tempered with heavy doses of his unique wit and warmth. He was tireless in his work for the less fortunate members of society and he had a smile and friendly word for everyone. I am thankful for his help and advice throughout the years. We will all miss him.

My deepest sympathy to the entire Sanders family. May you find peace and consolation in the memories.
