So Sorry to hear this. I was a classmate of Lynn's at St John's elementary school in Luzerne through 6th grade - then later at Central Catholic. We were both Luzerne residents. I was always impressed with Lynn's intelligence and creative skills. My deepest condolences to the family. God Bless. Rest in Peace. Don Repshas.

Unfailing charisma is indeed a good description for Lynn. I remember her energy and great smile very well.
She was fun to be around in the art department at Wilkes.
