Lynn was a neighbor when we first moved to Lexington and his garden was just wonderful! His son was a contemporary of our daughters, Mary and Amy,
and I remember that family fondly.

Lynn was about the nicest, kindest friendliest guy in the world. We were lucky to have known him! Our sympathies and best wishes go out to Ann and all of the family!
