She returned to Cramerton and began working as a secretary at Catawba Mills in Belmont. Lynn transitioned to Life of Virginia Insurance where she worked until 1998.
On February 15th 1980, Lynn married Charles A. Bramwell Sr., instantly expanding her family for which Lynn always wanted. Through the years, Lynn was a devoted wife, loving mother and caring daughter. She enjoyed any type of card & board games and even electronic games.
