I was saddened to hear of the passing of Lynn. Even though I have basically been gone from Lebanon since 1960, I have fond memories of playing on LHS sports teams with Lynn and his brother, Jack. However, I am particularly reminded of earlier, simpler times when the Wilson boys and I were neighbors and inveterate comic book traders, now known as graphic novels. After each trade negotiation was complete, I would always look forward to settling down with a pile of "new" comics to read, and looking forward to the next trade. RIP, Lynn.
I too am sadden by the loss of a dear high school friend that I played sports with. I shall miss seeing him at Ham Days on Sunday when looking at all the cars lined up on Main Street. I am reminded of 1965 when I was working at Midas Muffler Shop in Louisville and Lynn came into the shop with a new Mustang Cobra and wanted dual exhaust put on it (that was when the Mustang Cobras came out with single exhaust). He did not know that I worked there at that time. I took care of creating a dual exhaust using what was called a "tube bender" to bend the pipes. For years after that when I would see him at Ham Days he would comment on the dual exhaust I had made for his car. RIP dear friend.
I worked with Lynn Wilson for many of his 30-plus years with IBM. I speak for all his former workmates
when I say that he was a super guy, a good friend to everyone and always willing to assist in resolving
problems. He was held in high regard by all of his IBM customers. We were all saddened to hear of his passing.
Lynn was a proud veteran of the US Army. You can take the boy out of Marion County but you could never take
Marion County out of that boy. He loved his MC roots and could never wait to return home.
