Lynn had a big heart, a generous spirit and an unconditional devotion to her family.
Lynn’s dedication to her family’s happiness was always apparent and something we didn’t take for granted. She made such sweet memories with her kids and her grandkids, they knew how much she cherish them.
As I look back at the person Lynn was when I first met her, and during the many years that followed, she was in every way a woman of substance. From the very beginning of our relationship, she embraced me as nothing less than her own daughter. Her heart just stretched a little; she welcomed me in, and there I stayed, feeling right at home.
My mother-in-law always struck me as the epitome of salt-of-the earth decency, unpretentious, rock solid and fiercely loyal. Lynn was just 15 years old when she married my father-in-law, but somehow they beat the odds and stayed together through 59 years of marriage. Together they had three children, seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
She taught me that we should always appreciate every moment and never let go of the things in life that have the most meaning to us. I believe that’s what Lynn did, she always put family first because that’s what was most important to her. She was grateful for every day she had on this earth.
She has taught me many lessons in life and one lesson she taught me well is when someone new joins my family, I’ve tried to do as she did and stretched my heart a little to make room❤️
