I would like to express my symphaty to the family of Mrs. Lynn.
Frequently, Lynn was my client, and during the service I enjoyed conversation with her. I am stunned by her tragic loss and will miss her presence.

How shocking to hear of Lynn's death and how incomprehensible it still is for me. She was always so positive and full of hope and compassion. My deepest expression of sympathy go out to family and friends who bear the pain of the loss. May God give you comfort and peace.

Jim - We were deeply saddened to hear of your loss. Dad was sorry he could not be there for you as you were when Mom died last May. Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

It may be difficult at times, and you will be lonely, but follow your heart and you will manage. Our thoughts and prayers are with you both, with Lynn's parents and her brothers.

Dear Jim ~ we are both stunned by your tragic loss..our heartfelt thoughts & prayers are with you & John & all the family. ~ You "beamed" every time you talked to me or wrote to me about Lynn and John....it was evident that you loved them "to the moon and back"! ~ It has been an honor to know you these last few years...not just as a friend & business associate, but as a man I've admired as a dedicated & loving husband and father....through the photos & stories you've shared with me...including the ones you just sent of the three of you in costume and having a ball on Halloween!...you & Lynn sharing a kiss....& the stories over the years about how you & Lynn met, the birth of your son, the trips you took, & the magical memories made together & with your extended families....there was never a doubt in my mind that Lynn knew just how much you loved her...through your words & actions as an "incurable romantic" & through your deep & loving bond with your son. ~ It was just recently that you said to me, "life is great"...I agreed, and I was very happy for all of you! ~ And now, you are facing the toughest time of your life...but I know you will have the strength to raise your son as you & Lynn had planned...and that you will carry her legacy forward for John with your precious memories & the eternal love of two devoted parents. ~
We hope that God will grant all of you comfort & peace as you celebrate Lynn's life on Earth tomorrow & as you send her into His loving arms in Heaven. ~ Believe that she will be looking down & watching over you...now & always....until you reunite with her again. ~ We are sorry that we can't be with you tomorrow, but please know that we are there in spirit...and we are here for you, along with many caring friends who share your pain...With Love and Deepest Sympathy....Joyce & Woody

Jim - I don't know what to say to you. My heart aches for your loss and I feel your pain. I know how happy you have been since you and Lynn married and John came along. But I also know you're strong and you will be ok and so will John with you to lead him. Never forget you have friends who love you and will be there when you need them - and never be too proud to ask for help -- you're in my prayers and so it that little guy!

My prayers are with Lynn's family. (Lynn's back home in heaven.) I never knew her. Last time I saw Jim, he was singing the lollipop song at Shady Shores! May you all feel God's love and comfort. I'm Jan and Bob Murphy's daughter...cabin 3 in July.

I knew Lynn only briefly from having done several consulting projects with The Wright Group. She was always so sincere and professional, and displayed a wonderful sense of humor always at just the right times. My deepest sympathy to Lynn's family.

Words could never describe how very deeply I admired Lynn. She truly lived her Christian values and was the most wonderful, supportive boss that I've ever had. I will miss her so very, very much! It brings me great comfort to envision her in heaven. My sincere condolences go out to her loving husband and her precious son.

To work with Lynn was such a pleasure and honor for me. While I was at McGraw-Hill, Lynn was always the person I could talk with about anything. She was a great mentor and I will always cherish the time I got to spend with her. To her family and friends, please know that God never puts more on us than we can bear and although we may understand why things happen, God knows best. Cathey Shannon

Lynn was truly a role model in many ways. She had a quiet way of leading. She will be greatly missed.
