Lynnette was one of my oldest and dearest friends. We met in kindergarten.

 I smile often when I remember the slumber parties as kids, the club we formed with Sharon, (the Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club), our late night political discussions that usually ended in convulsive laughter! 

She was the definition of a friend in need, as well as in deed.

Her love for the Lord was inspiring and made those who knew her unafraid to draw closer to him. 

We'd lost touch for awhile on social media, but when we reconnected, I got the opportunity to tell my friend that I loved her and she would always be family to me. 

See you on the other side Lynnette. <3 

Lynnette was a couple grades ahead in school. What I can tell you is that she was liked by everyone that I knew and she was kind to everyone as I witnessed.  We've been friends again on Facebook the last few years and I found her the same as she was in school.  Someone you could trust to be good and kind, honest and true. The world is better because she was here. 

Lynnette was the last person  that I trained on our line at Yang Feng in Holland.  I worked with her off and on for many years. Such a nice person.  She made great toffee and sold it at Christmas time. RIP Lynnette.  Gonna miss you. 😢 

Lynette was a Hard worker who took Great Pride in her Job.  I had the pleasure of working with her when her line needed help.  The day would always go fast because conversation with Lynette was easy.  We enjoyed talking about politics, food and life.  Recently I told Lynette she looked Great!  She was so appreciative and proud to hear that.  She went on to proudly say how she was now in the same size jeans she wore in high school.  I am so glad I listened to my inner voice to let Lynette know how Great she looked.  Going to miss our conversations my friend.  RIP Lynette 

Joe, Sharon and family, 
So sorry for your loss! Thoughts and prayers go out to all of you 
Hugs

Lynnette, such a kind hearted person.  I feel blessed to have went to school with her and to have remained friends till she was called Home.  I will miss her and my 3am private message chats, as recent as 2 weeks ago.  I see  her entering Heavens gates and Rick Walker greeting her with a fist bump ... RIP Dear Friend

Lynnette was a great person with a love for the Lord and it showed in her kindness.  When I was going through a rough spot in 1990, Lynnette reached out to me and I stayed with her for a couple days.  It meant a lot to me that she was there for me like that.  We have been friends since elementary and we played HS sports together.  The first birthday party I ever attended was Lynnette and Sharon's.   They were both an active part of my life when my daughter was born and their gifts to/for her were very special.  We kept in touch but didn't get togethwr near enough. Lynnette was a good friend and she will be missed.

Lynnette was a good friend.   She had a hart for the Lord and it showed in her kindness to others.  We have been friends since elementary and played HS sports together.

It meant a lot to her.  She and Sharon were a ative part in my life when my daughter was born and the gifts they gave her were special!   She was a God friend and was special in the lives of many .  She will be missed.

I fondly remember Lynnette visiting my family in both North Carolina and California when I was younger. She was always so kind and so generous. We will miss her deeply.

Lynnette had such a servants heart!  I was so thankful to have her and her then partner Emily as such close friends that I could confide in them the details of my failing marriage.  Lynnette was an excellent listener, fixer upper, and so generous.  I was so sad to hear of her passing and she will be missed by many! 

Lynette will be missed by so many people at work.  Getting to know her in the last year has been a bonus in my life.  She was a bonus in the Prince, JCI, YF family. 

I talked to her about my early retirement and she was so happy for me.Life is short. 

Lynette was a great worker. We worked together on a Mercedes line at Southview for many years. She’s had a kind heart. She would always ask about my sister who had cancer.  May she Rest In Peace. 🙏🏼
