Rory was born on December 6th, 1980 to Dwight "Bud" and Lynda Lynn of Notch, at Skaggs Hospital in Branson Mo.
Rory attended Reeds Spring Schools from kindergarten until his last semester of his Senior year. Rory wanted to be a Marine. He moved to Columbia Mo., to finish his Senior year and to live with his cousin, Bryon, who was in the Marine Corps. While there he was able to drill and participate with the Marines attending Mizzou.
After High School he went to boot camp in California. While in the Marine Corps he studied Avionics Engineering. He spent time in California, North Carolina and Florida. He was honorably discharged and returned to Missouri and went to Three Rivers College where he earned an associates degree in Drafting/Engineering, Cum Laude. It was in Poplar Bluff that he began to develop a strong interest in Ministry having been influenced by Pastor Ron Webb.
This interest led him to spend an enormous amount of time with his parents in music ministry. While attending The Sanctuary of Hope Church he was given a pastorals license for his continuous efforts in growing the kingdom.
Rory returned to the Branson area where he studied nursing and earned an associates degree in Biological Clinical Science, Cum Laude from OTC.

Rory leaves a legacy of perseverance. He struggled with mental illness and post traumatic stress his entire adult life. Even through his struggles he persevered to lead a life of purpose, and through that he provides an example to others with the same demons that there is hope. The fight is worth the pain for those that struggle and their families.
