We are thinking of you with much love and sympathy during this difficult time. I am the daughter of Dewey Harkins, and he and Wilson were first cousins. The last time I saw Lynn was at Paul Harkins' funeral and he got to speak to several of Blanche Harkins Rhodarmer's grandchildren. My mother, Joyce Harkins, also sends her sympathy to you.

Dear Dottie, Willene and Billy,
Just seeing the sad news in today's paper. I lost touch with Lynn but never forgot about him. My dad enjoyed his company so much. We all went to Cades Cove together once. I remember the videos of Alaska and some of his stories of this time there. We attended a concert at WCU after his injury-a gospel group that he loved. What I remember most is his love for his family and his fighting spirit. Love to you all.

Dottie and Family,
I personally want to say how much I enjoyed waiting on Lynn. I am so sorry for your loss. It was my pleasure to take care of him. He had a special way about him. I will never forget him. My name was hard for him. One time he brought me flowers. He always wanted to do something to thank you for doing something for him. But his smile was thanks enough for me. I know you will miss him. I was his feller.. Love you all. God is the comforter..
