Although she was actually my cousins’ aunt and not mine, I always called her and thought of her as Aunt Lynne. She was so easy to talk to that the year between seeing her seemed to be no time at all. She and Uncle Hack reared beautiful children as well and gave me fond yearly memories. Peace and healing to all of her remaining family in the days ahead.

My sincerest condolences to Lynne’s family on this occasion. Lynne and Jack lived across from us on Brock Street and I remember spending many happy times as a child with them eating cheese pretzels and playing the piano. I want to say thank you to Lynne for taking care of myself and my family in those early years. My deepest sympathies and love.

Sarah / Andrea / Jacqueline.
Sad to hear about your moms passing. Ryann, McKenna and I where lucky to to have your mom and dad in our lives. The girls and I have fond memories of Brock Street ( the schneiders cheese pretzels / the Strybos organ and so on ). I hold fond memories of the chats and conversations and the many long chats we had about raising kids knowing that they raised you girls so awesomely. Last time I saw your mom was in Boone at your dads service which I was proud to be invited to. She has been in my thoughts many times over the years when the girls and I reminisced about our time on Brock street and our friendship after. Take care hold hands and smile for me at your moms service please. Mike the Farmer
