Lynn was my "bubber." He was 14 when I was born. I could not say brother, so bubber became his name for me. He was married to Ann Steven's in Baton Rouge when I was 8. I cried during the wedding thinking I never would see him again. Lynn and Ann had 2 sons Lynn Jr. And Christopher making me a "Aunt" at a very youn age. I thought it was so cool. Lynn Jr. was nickname "Tiger. " for MU Tigers and LSU Tigers. To this day I still call Lynn Jr. "Tiger". I did see Lynn again. I went to Baton Rouge several summers staying with Lynn and Ann for the summers, watching the boys and enjoying my time with Bubber and Ann. Many fond and loving Memories. I also graduated in 1973 from Fort Osage. Lynn, Ann and Tiger and Chris came to my wedding to Ron in 1975. I kept in touch with Lynn often. Was sad when Lynn and Ann were divorced. Very sad when Christopher passed away. Lynn then met Carolyn and they were married. Our mother Estaline Noltensmeyer LeBarron Kenyan passed away in 2006. His father Robert Fickle and my Father Jack LeBarron have passed as well. I was so fortunate to go see Lynn 3 years ago in Walker, LA when he still was in good health. Lynn Ron and I had so much fun!! I'm so thankful we did that!! Bubber will always be in my heart. Rest in peace Bubber. Love you Always!! Your baby sister, Jill LeBarron Phillips
