I met Lynn through his sister Patty when I was12. I fell in love with his cousin Marty and we all became friends loved teasing Lynn...always calling him "Red" and he always replied...it sure ain't purple. Always fun to be around. Regret that we all lost touch. He will be missed! Condolences to the entire family.
