Our sincere condolences to all of Lynn’s family.
Our condolences to the family of our good neighbor. Cecilia, Annie & Ian Hall.
Our sincere condolences to the Gallant family on the passing of our neighbor Lynn. We were neighbors for nearly 30 years and shared good times and difficult times together, as neighbors do. A family obligation will regretfully prevent us from attending the memorial service on Saturday, but you will all be in our thoughts and prayers.
Forever in our hearts mother dear, you were more than a friend. We are forever grateful for crossing path with you, see you in the next. Love and miss you dearly.
I was very sorry to hear of Lynn’s passing. She was tiny but mighty and such a go getter. What a special lady she was!! I will forever be grateful for her time and assistance and hard work in helping me make my son’s wish come true for the Veterans Cemetery.
Lynn will be sorely missed by so many. My deepest condolences to her family. Heaven gained a mighty Angel. 🙏❤️🇺🇸
