I was Lynne's secretary at New England Life in 1981. I was young, immature, and she put up with my many shenanigans. With Lynne's help, I became a testing analyst and eventually a project manager. She was kind, thoughtful, tactfully handled a lot of challenging situations, and set an example for me. I know she was crazy about her nieces and nephews and it was always "family first" as it should be.

Kind, sweet, guileless, beautiful smile, twinkling eyes...loved the Lord and His church with all her heart, soul, and strength.
