Many good memories of Lynn pre and post Parkinsons. Because she was pretty much home bound, I looked forward to our Trivial Pursuit games at her house, her body was weak, but her mind was strong. I only beat her twice!

I knew Lynn growing up and attending the same schools together, all 12 years. She lived just up the street from me and she was a friend.
My deepest sympathies are extended to her family on their loss.

I go back with Lynn and Sally to the days of the Rt. 60 Holiday Inn pool. Sweet girl. Always liked her.

I was so sad to hear about Lynn. I met Lynn during the Marshall years, and she was a great friend to me. I will always remember her sharp sense of humor, her clever wit and her way of keeping everyone laughing. And her long dark hair- She was a delight to be around and it was always more fun if Lynn was there. Lynn will be greatly missed. My heart goes out to Sally & Jessie.

Lynn followed me as student teacher to Sally Piepenbrink. We shared admiration for Sally as well as a love for teaching 3rd graders once we began our teaching careers. I have a very special memory of being able to share my last lunch, as a resident of Huntington, with her at the original Calamity. That was 12/31/1982. Our classes in SC and WV were pen pals for a few years. She was able to visit me a couple of times in SC. She loved her family, her pets and teaching. Condolences to those she leaves behind.

Saddened to read of Lynn's passing. During my youth in Huntington, I was fortunate to grow up with and know Lynn and her sister Sally. I remember Lynn fondly as very charismatic, gregarious, funny and fun loving and one who always had a laugh and smile for everyone. My sincere condolences to Sally and the family during this very difficult time.
