Lynn Rioux

Lynn Angela (Spaziani) Rioux passed away on July 31, 2022. She is survived by her daughters Marissa and Lauren, her loving parents, Robert and Carol, and her siblings, Lora, Bill, and Susan. She was an integral part of her extended families' lives, caring for her nieces Gabby, Emma, Annie, and Molly as well as her nephew Dominick. She was welcoming and loving to her in-laws, Klem, Priscilla, Jason, Andrew, and Jon. Lynn created a bond as strong as family with her best friend and chosen sister Lisa, and her husband Fred, and their sons, Ben and Jared. After she moved from Hartford in her early childhood, she became a lifelong Newington resident, ingratiating herself into the community and always spreading kindness. She worked for over thirty years as a Paralegal at the Attorney General's Office, utilizing her intellect and proficient problem-solving skills to assist the attorneys, creating many lifelong friendships. Lynn had a special ability to make every person she interacted with feel special, always taking time to listen and offer her sound advice, leaving an everlasting impression with her vast insight. Lynn was thoughtful in every action, whether it be grand or as small as sending a kind text. Lynn loved her family with great passion, attending every event possible in a demonstration of her commitment to others. Lynn was devoted to her daughters, creating a bond so powerful and lasting, words cannot explain the intensity with which she loved them. She spent her summers with her girls and family at Sound View Beach in Old Lyme with a cup of coffee in her hand and her toes in the sand. Lynn will be greatly missed by all and will continue to live on through the family and friends she impacted throughout her life.
