Ecclesiastes 3:1-4 KJV

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.

From a very young age Lynett enjoyed music. She always listened to the radio and sang along. And she never forgot the lyrics or tune to a song she liked. She enjoyed singing in church and did it as often as she could attend. She enjoyed traveling to the beach, the mountains, going to summer camp and playing games. She liked Andy Griffith. And she loved good food!

She is survived by her sister, Betty Williams (Jessie); two nieces, Traci Barnett (Michael) and Kimberly Pugh (Michael); one great niece, Shelby Barnett (Nikita); and three great nephews, Brady Barnett, William Pugh, Benjamin Pugh; and a host of cousins and dear friends.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Lucile Wincett Higginbotham and Martin Luther Higginbotham.

John 10:27-30 KJV

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand I and my Father are one.
