Lynn’s true passion in life was her family. She loved to plan and prepare meals for family gatherings. Both family and friends admired her cooking skills. Nevertheless, she worked outside of the home for many years. She was employed at Capitol Federal Savings and Loan in her early years. As her children grew, she was employed as a school secretary for Blue Valley Middle School. Subsequently, she became an active member of her husband’s management consulting firm. Lastly, she retired from her daughter Amy and Paul's business Granite Transformations as Showroom Coordinator.
Lynn was a long-serving member and past president of Delta Theta Chi Sorority. She was a long-time member of the Presbyterian Church of Stanley and, more recently, Cornerstone Presbyterian Church. Lynn served in numerous positions through the years, including Elder, Deacon, Sunday School teacher and Chair of Children's Ministry, Stephen's Ministry, and was active in the women's group. She was a volunteer for over ten years for Kansas City Hospice and volunteered with the Johnson County “Catch a Ride” for the elderly.
