Lynn Addison Obituary

Lynn Addison,73, passed away on Wednesday, April 16, 2025. She was born on June 26, 1951, in New Castle to the late Gene and Wilma (Rohlfing) Copeland.

Lynn was a 1969 graduate of Blue River High School. She will be remembered as a sweet lady who spent most of her time loving and taking care of her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren and other loved ones. She loved living out in the country with her longtime partner, Doug, and their dogs and cats. She enjoyed the wildlife around their home and would feed the squirrels daily. They had a big garden and love sharing vegetables with family and friends.

In addition to spending time with her family, she enjoyed and spoke fondly of regular get-togethers with some friends from high school. She also loved staying in touch with extended family by going to annual Rohlfing family reunions, before her health declined. She will be missed by all who knew her.

Lynn is survived by her sister, Sandie Williams (husband, Bob) and their children, Burke, Jama, Dawn, and Jody (and their families); daughter, Jennifer Conwell, and granddaughter, Claire Conwell; daughter, Jeana Mosier (husband, Ken) and granddaughter, Darian; grandson, Ryan Fannin; granddaughter, Shelby Lowe (fiancé, Robert Brossman); great grandchildren, John Smith and Laney Brossman. She also has many cousins and other treasured extended family members in several Midwest and Western states.

In addition to her parents, Lynn was preceded in death by her longtime partner, Doug Cheesman and her daughter, Jill Brown.
