I am at a loss- Lynn was a remarkably kind, and fun soul. He always made me smile and was genuine when he talked to you. He always made me feel welcome and that he cared about what was going on in your life. I am blessed to have known him even for a short while and know that he will be deeply missed in life and in the Skyline High School family.
Lynn you will be greatly missed great working with you ❤️
