Lynn Williams (Swett), aged 69, passed away on August 17, 2024, in Ava, Missouri. Born on February 3, 1955, in Kewanee, Illinois, Lynn lived a life marked by warmth, wit, and wisdom.

Lynn's infectious laughter and unparalleled wit were the heart of many joyful gatherings.

Lynn's love for animals mirrored her compassionate spirit, always extending kindness to creatures big and small. Her legacy is characterized by love, laughter, and a deep appreciation for life's beauty.

Back in 1977 we pulled a U-haul and helped Lynn & Steve move to Washington State. We fell in love with the beautiful PNW and 47 years later we are still here. Remember, our days spent camping along the way and Sean & Cathy were just babies. Steve stood up for us when we got married in March 1978. Lost track of them once Steve was out of air Force. Sorry to hear and send peace to Steve and the family

Hi Tommy and Chrsty, The last time I saw all of you is when your dad was in the hospital. I remember Lynn staying at my house. We stay up all night laughing and telling each other memories of Us being kids and Grandma and Grandpa Swett. We had so much fun. I gave her Grandma Swett glasses. I know she was very close to them. I am so sorry for your loss and Lynn family. Sue Kenny or maybe you will remember me as Sue Sturm Love to all of your family

Lynn and I were very close, country school, tanning on roof tops. We laughed so much and had so much fun together. I miss her and those times. My heart goes out to her family. She was one of a kind.
