A Graduate of University City, Lynn later earned her B.A from Oklahoma University in Fine Art, a passion Lynn mastered and a lifetime love of theatre, museums, and music. Lynn’s vibrant life was filled with mahjong, theater, baking, book club and thrift store treasure hunting. Lynn’s true legacy was her radiant smile, sweet disposition and her true ability to see beauty in all her surroundings. Lynn’s gentle demeanor was matched by her courage, strength and grace — never heard to complain, never heard to anger. Lynn is remembered as a dedicated wife, loving mother and grandmother, accomplished artist and longtime art educator to generations of kids.
