Kip and family, I am so deeply sorry for your loss.
I had the honor of working with Lynn since March 2015 until her retirement. She mentored me with such kindness and patience and I will be forever grateful to her. Her love of family was well known and I always enjoyed hearing about them in her Christmas letters. She was so happy with her life and she always had such a great attitude no matter what. She had a true sense of grace. I will think of her smile and that laugh and I am grateful for knowing her. You will be in my prayers. R.I.H. Lynn.

My husband, Barry and I were heartbroken to hear of Lynns passing. She was an amazing woman. She was a trusted colleague and mentor. She was so helpful to Barry and I, in so many ways both professionally and personally. Above all of her professional accomplishments, it was obvious she was proudest of all of her children and grandchildren. It was Lynns advice, comforting words and guidance as a Mom herself that got me through some trying days during a difficult pregnancy, and later to both of us as new parents. We will never forget her kind heart.

All the fun we had at family get togethers have special meaning.Due to living far apart, we stayed connected through long distance communication. She will always be a part of my heart. My condolences go out to Kip and all 5 of her children, Tim, Eric, Adam, Arianne, And Howell.
