Lyn is preceded by her mother, Roberta Bratton, and sister, Pamela Di Donato.
Loved by her family, friends, and co-workers
Lyn was a creative talent, enjoyed working the family tree and was an avid Quilter.
Ultimate school volunteer, troop leader, wedding coordinator, floral assistant, and manicurist are just some of the countless jobs and activities Lyn was involved with.
Lyn was the “Center” of her large family. Logical about “Life”, always there to help during difficult and joyous moments. Lyn would always tell you “like it is”, whether you liked it or not. She was often sharing memories of family and friends.
Lyn was a kidney transplant recipient. Lyn was forever grateful for the extra time it allowed her to have with her family.
No matter what the circumstances in life, she endured with laughter and hope.
Lyn is survived by her loving husband, John, of 57 years
