It's Wildly amazing that you have been gone for 4 years. I think of you all the time when I treat women. I know you are flying freely and I am so happy for you. xox

I just learned of Lyn's passing. I am utterly devastating and shocked. She was such a huge part of my life, a friend, a sister.

Lyn was a spark of light and laughter and joy. We met at BU and were close friends through our mid-30's. We shared a passion for the beach and the gym and I'll always cherish our adventures on Martha's Vineyard. Wishing her peace.

I adored Lyn. She was so singular, funny, intuitive and smart, and in her ways and work, she was an angel on earth. Since I heard of her passing a few months ago, I think of her SO often. I am in shock she is no longer with us. I hope she is surrounded by love love love, the love she gave so freely!

I was shocked and very sad to find out that Lyn had passed. I saw her in the 1990s when I was struggling with infertility. She always made me feel better, physically and emotionally and played a huge role in helping me get and stay pregnant. She was a kind person and amazing healer and I am so sad that she is gone.

I just learned about Lyn's passing today. My husband and I are so deeply saddened to hear about such a beautiful soul taken so young. We both met Lyn through her acupuncture practice many years ago while we were living in Boston, and she not only helped both of us feel better, but she was a special friend too. We both looked forward to every session with her. Unfortunately since we moved, we haven't stayed in touch, but I have thought of Lyn often. My heart goes out to all those who also were positively touched by Lyn.

I am so saddened to learn of Lyn's passing. I would never have become a mother if it had not been for Lyn's wonderful skill and passion for acupuncture. She also helped me face my fear of needles in order to receive acupuncture treatments during my infertility struggles. I am so grateful to have known her and for all she has done for me and my family. I am so very sad to learn this news. I need some time to process all this. Rest in peace my dear friend. -Kathy

Lyn will live on in the beautiful children she helped us create. She was a uniquely special person, intuitive, kind, funny, and smart. I feel blessed to have shared time with Lyn and I am forever grateful for the gifts she gave me.

I am so sad to hear of Lyn's passing. She helped me, through acupuncture, during my fertility treatments. She was a beautiful, funny, authentic spirit. I think of her as an angel during that time for me. Sending you love wherever you are, Lyn.

You are the most interesting person I have met. From acupuncture (my foot still feels fine) to cooking classes in Italy to visiting Shanghai you so impressed me.
