I MISS MY FRIEND, LYNDA.SHE WAS A BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN WOMAN, INSIDE AND OUT. I BECAME ACQUAINTED WITH LYNDA FOR 30 YEARS, AS WE GREW UP TOGETHER, IN THE SAME CHURCH ASSEMBLY.  WE RAISED OUR CHILDREN ALONGSIDE EACH OTHER DURING MANY YEARS OF  FELLOWSHIP AND SHARED MANY FAMILY  EXPERIENCES, BOTH SPIRITUAL, AND IN DAY BY DAY LIVING. I  REMEMBER WELL, HER PARENTS, ALSO. THEY WERE STRONG LEADERS IN OUR CHURCH, WHOM I ADMIRED VERY MUCH.
           LYNDA WAS A VERY DEVOTED AND  FAITHFUL WORKER IN OUR CHURCH. SHE WAS ALSO A DEVOTED WIFE , MOTHER, AND GRANDMOTHER. I REMEMBER HER DOTING OVER HER CHILDREN WHEN THEY WERE YOUNG, DRESSING THEM " TO A T" FOR CHURCH TIMES. I WAS MOVED SPIRITUALLY BY HER TESTIMONIES.LYNDA WAS IN CHARGE OF THE CLEANING OF OUR CHURCH AND TOOK MUCH PRIDE IN IT. I REMEMBER WITHOUT HESITATION, ASKING HER WHAT TASK I COULD DO FOR HER AND I PERFORMED I T OUT OF RESPECT AND ADMIRATION FOR HER. SHE WAS CONSCIENTIOUS AND IT SHOWED. LYNDA WORKED IN THE KITCHEN AND DINING ROOM, TOO, IN ALL OUR MEETINGS AND CHURCH FUNCTIONS. SHE WAS ALWAYS READY AND WILLING TO ROLL UP HER SLEEVES AND DO HER PART. I REMEMBER ONE MEETING, SO CLEARLY :  THE SPIRIT OF GOD FELL HEAVILY IN THE DINING ROOM AND KITCHEN WHERE OUR KITCHEN AND DINING ROOM WORKERS WERE WORKING. THE SPIRIT OF GOD WAS SO HEAVY, IT DISRUPTED THE  SERVICE GOING ON IN THE SANCTUARY. LYNDA WAS SO BLESSED AND IN THE SPIRIT, TOO. SHE LEANED ONTO THE DINING TABLE, ALMOST IN HER PLATE WHEN THE KITCHEN WORKERS SAT DOWN TO EAT.  MANY OF THE CHURCH LADIES, SO FULL OF THE SPIRIT, ALONG SIDE LYNDA, COULDN'T SIT AT THE TABLE AND EAT EITHER. THEY WERE SO BLESSED AND DRENCHED IN THE SPIRIT OF GOD.      LYNDA HAD A WONDERFUL PERSONALITY , FULL OF HUMOR, SMILES,JOKING, KIDDING AND POKING FUN. BUT SHE ALSO HAD A SOBER , SERIOUS SIDE ABOUT HER WHEN IT CAME TO THE WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE LORD.  I SO REMEMBER THAT ABOUT HER.
LYNDA  SANG IN OUR CHURCH CHOIR AS A STRONG LEAD SINGER. I REMEMBER, IN PARTICULAR, THE SONG, THE CHURCH 
TRIUMPHANT, SHE BELTED OUT "AND  IT WAS BUILT BY THE HAND OF THE LORD." NO ONE COULD DO THAT PART, BUT LYNDA.! THE SINGING  OF THAT SOLO PART BROUGHT THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD INTO THE SERVICE .IT BROUGHT NOTICE, TOO, BECAUSE, LYNDA, ,BEING OF SMALL STATURE, WAS ABLE TO SING OUT LOUD AND STRONG!                       YES, LYNDA WAS A HOLY GHOST FILLED DAUGHTER OF THE KING AND I AM SO GLAD I CAN SAY THAT I HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF KNOWING HER!  I LOOKED UP TO HER!  SHE WAS ALWAYS MY GOOD FRIEND AND SISTER IN THE LORD. I KNOW SHE IS AT PEACE, IN A WONDERFUL AND  HEAVENLY PLACE WITH THE LORD. I AM SORRY FOR THE LOSS OF A FRIEND, SO YOUNG, AND MY LOVE EXTENDS  TO HER SPOUSE, CHILDREN AND CLOSE FRIENDS. GOD BLESS YOU, LYNDA, AND ALL YOUR FAMILY.
                SINCERELY, IN CHRIST, 
                     YOUR FRIEND    
                       AND SISTER

My Aunt Lynda was a beautiful person and a great soul!  She will be missed here by family and friends but she is free to fly with the birds and the angels!
Sam and Heather Courtney

Lynda will be greatly miss. She was such a wonderful & outgoing person who always made people smile.

I loved Lynda's beautiful smile and bubbly spirit.  She was full of life and made you feel happy to be around her.  Praying for peace and comfort for all of the family.

She was a beautiful woman and I know your hearts are broken. Look at the great times you all shared together in life and her memories will never leave.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
