We were at Wadeview pool today at our Water Aerobics class, and several of us spoke of how much we still miss Lynn.  The pool was  one of her favorite  activities. 
We can still feel her spirit there, and her happy chatter that always was contagious!
Know in your hearts dear family,   she lives on, and  brought so much joy to our class, and all who knew her.  Gone, but not forgotten. 💕

LYNN It's been 1 year since we lost you I want you to know you're in my heart and in my thoughts.   At this time I think of you often.   And I want you to know that we the pool girls are thinking of you on this day🦢❤️💞

Tonight I lit a  candle and honored your memory dear Lynn.  We felt your presence at the pool today, remembering all the fun and silly moments you happily splashed with us in water aerobics.  You will always be forever young to us! ✨ Love, Sue 



A beautiful mountain picture.  Glad we got to do this together ❤️.  Good times 

Lynn is still always in my heart,  I miss her everyday,  this picture was taken while we were up in the smoky mountains with a Diamond Tour group,  we had such great memories ❤️ . I love you Lynn 

I unfortunately didn’t get to have as many years as one of Lynn’s pool pals as a lot of the other ladies  but the time I got to spend in Lynn’s company was always a blessing. She was so much fun. I loved her big beautiful smile. her laugh, and her voice. She was really something special and I’m so thankful to have been able to call her my friend.
My heart goes out to each of her family members and friends. I can only imagine your grief. I hope your special memories will sustain you until you meet again.

Lynn was married to my brother in law Paul in early 70’s … the 4 of us had a great time and her smile was always larger than life …. When chad was a baby he was so cute and Troy was the cutest little guy with that curly hair … we did loose touch for way too many years … life takes you in different directions sometimes but thanks to fb we got reconnected … she was still the same Lynn with that smile !! Now we have been able to reconnect with Chad our nephew and we are so thankful !!! Chad and Troy you have a beautiful family … looking through all the photos on your memory page we lost out on so many years together! And hopefully we can make up for some of them now! Sending lots of love and hugs to all of you and wish I could be there to comfort you but I’m always here, we are always here, like Carrie said at her party Chad you’re stuck with us!!! We love you !! 

Wow I can't believe that she is going she was a wonderful person and she was a wonderful and very great person who was so understanding and knew what you were worth she wasn't just my best teacher but she was a Super star ✨✨ that God put in my life
  Thanks for everything Ms. Keaton love you always

One of the many dogs we picked up along our wild and crazy travels. You will always be with me. 

I met Lynn through Wadeview water aerobics years ago. We all go for the exercise but build lasting friendships as in with Lynn. 
One day I was chatting with Lynn in the pool and commented on her earrings, saying "I love your earrings" Without hesitation she said "you want them" took them out of her ears and handed them to me! That's the generous soul Lynn was to me and everyone else. Her beautiful smile will be missed! And I will treasure those earrings for the rest of my life! Thank you Lynn for your friendship.

My prayers and sympathy go out to Troy and Chad and family.  Your Mom was a wonderful person! I know she created many wonderful moments for you to cherish for a lifetime.

There's no love like a mother's love. She was so sweet and kind inside and out God called  this beautiful flower home. R.I.P beautiful lady.

My beloved patient, Lynn….Rest easy.  You already fought hard.  I will always remember you as a very good patient of mine. I won’t forget our small chit chat about life, talking anything just to kill the time while we are waiting for your hydration to finish, (which at times took 3 hours….)Sorry I did not have  the chance to see you for the last time..
May the Lord comfort your loved ones in this difficult time. REST in PEACE LYNN🙏🙏-Dexter

Lynn was beautiful inside and out. It was a blessing to be her friend. 

Warm, outgoing, impulsive, intuitive, caring, fun-loving, nurturing, gleeful, compassionate…mostly unique…just a few adjectives describing my treasured friend, Lynn. You will be missed. 💕

Rest in peace, Lynn. You will be missed. May your memory be eternal.


Lynn always had a big smile,  she welcomed me to water aerobics and we have been best friends ever since,  I could talk to her about anything and she always put me in the right direction,  I loved our trips together, she was so much fun. She will be missed and always loved 

I came to know Lynn during fun times spent at Wadeview pool with the aerobics gals. She was always an avid supporter of any of our outings and added extra cheer to all celebrations.  One thing that really made an impression on me early on was when I heard her lovingly speak about her time as a teacher.  She mentioned how the students were allowed to have a classroom pet if the teacher was amenable.  She spoke of bringing that bunny home every holiday and weekend like it was no chore, just a little something she could do to enrich the lives of her students. She apparently did this for years.  I was very touched by her love and compassion for her students.  I later saw where she treated everyone that way.  God gained an Angel and she left behind many loving memories. 

Always enjoyed our conversations over lunch or at swimming.  You are a beautiful caring woman and I will miss you.  Love, Lenore VanAlstyne 

The first time Lynn met my daughter Lindsay, she actually sat down and engaged in a deep conversation with her🤔 Very cool 😎

Dear Family, 
Lynn  added so much joy to our  water aerobics classes at Wadeview Pool for years.  She enjoyed being an enthusiastic major player of our pool pals get togethers and lunches, and made us feel like a VIP on our birthdays.  Lynn lived life well, and was always easy going.  I admired her warmth towards anyone who approached her, always with a friendly smile.  She will remain “forever young” to us, and dearly missed! 💖
Till we meet again, Sue Neumeyer ☮️💟

You will be truly missed.  Thank you for being in my life.  We shared a lot of memories and I will always remember your laugh.  NO ONE will ever have your laugh and smile.  My thoughts and prayers are with your family and hoping this time will bring some smiles to know how much you are loved!
