I am very sorry to hear of Lynn passing away. I worked with him for several years at Pizza Hut. I would still see him occasionally at the Civic Center and talk about old times. He was a very nice man and will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of loss.

Lynn has touched our lives the way no one else could. He was always there when we needed him. Our children knew him as Uncle Lynn. We traveled many places together and had the best times and have stories to tell that always bring laughs. He and Richard considered themselves brothers. If any of us were sick Lynn was always there. We met at Green Acres and were very close for years and drifted apart. Lynn had a heart of gold and will always live in our hearts.

Karl and our family knew Lynn while we were members of Beverly Hills Baptist Church. He had a big heart and a lot of love to give to the world and will be sadly missed.

Lynn will be missed. He was always happy and had a huge smile on his face. He used to tail gate with us. His job was to bake something sweet, and he always came thru. I will miss seeing him at Speedway. I bet He and my husband (Roy) are talkling Marshall football right now and looking down and smiling.
My thougths and prayers are with you at this time of sadness.

Please know that your family is in our prayers. May God hold you close. We saw Lynn a few years ago while attending a class reunion at the Huntington Civic Center. He was "working" but seemed glad to see us. We chatted for quite some time. We will always remember his enthusiasm and his special love of music! In Christ, the Tabors

Please know that we are praying for your family during this difficult time. May God hold you close. We saw Lynn a few years ago while attending a class reunion at the Huntington Civic Center. He was "working" but seemed so glad to run into us! We chatted for quite a little while. We'll always remember his enthusiasm, and especially his love for music.
