Lynne Riddle, 75, of Westminster, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, August 13, 2025 at her home, surrounded by her family's love.

Born July 14, 1950 in Baltimore, she was the daughter of the late Francis Budzinski and Myrtle Orback (Jones). She was the cherished wife of Charles Herman Riddle, Jr., her loving husband of 56 years.

Lynne was a graduate of North Western High School in Baltimore. She worked as a mortgage processor for several banks and title companies including Loyal Federal, until her retirement. She enjoyed sewing, reading and cooking the most delicious meals. She adored her grandchildren and especially loved spending time with them. Her favorite place to visit was the beach.

Surviving in addition to her husband is daughter Heather Ziegenfuss and her husband Cory of Hampstead, son Zach Riddle of Fayetteville, NC; siblings Brenda Miller of Baltimore, Stanley Budzinski of Gettysburg, PA and Lisa Meyers of Westminster; grandchildren Patrick, Liam, and Brendan Ziegenfuss; and numerous nieces and nephews.

In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by brother Thomas "Chickie" Budzinski.

The family will welcome extended family and friends on Monday, August 18, 2025 from 2 to 4pm and 6 to 8pm at Pritts Funeral Home & Chapel, 412 Washington Rd., Westminster. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Tuesday, August 19th at 11 am at St. John Catholic Church, 43 Monroe Street, Westminster. A Eulogy will begin at 10:45 a.m.
