I was sad to read about Lynn. We had fun times in High School, but lost contact after graduation. Lynn was always so bubbly. You could always find a dimpled smile on her face. I hope she didn't suffer. Makes me wish I had stayed in contact.Margo Poore (Milandin Leatham )
I knew Lynn since before kindergarten. She always had that happy little girl voice and a smile that penetrated right through you. We had such good times growing up together. She will always be part of me and in my heart.Michael Patrick Cardoza

We had kept up with Lynn and her family, mostly through Christmas cards and her sisters who are still in the area. It's hard to believe that someone who was so full of life is gone.Nancy Sheridan (Wilson)
Lynn was my best friend in high scool as well as my matron of honor and I her bride's maid. We were "partners in crime" so to speak. I remember hours spent yaking on the phone with her. Many a happy and sad time we shared after highschool.
She visited us when we were both pregnant and we saw her when she was in Corvalis. We lost touch after she moved back east. I was so distressed at her death. But I know her grand daughter will do her proud. I only hope she doesn't do the things we did! :) Love and miss you dear friend.
