Lynn became an expert accountant and had a great sense for business. Throughout her career, she was a Controller (lead financial role), working primarily in the printing and publishing industry. She was a strong and caring woman who cherished time with family and friends.

The first of five children, she was the de facto leader and blazed the trail of parental training, much to the benefit of the siblings who followed.

She will be missed by all who knew her.
