I met Lynn a year ago after I moved into her ward. She introduced herself to me shortly after I moved in and went out of her way to make me feel welcome. She would always sit next to me in Relief Society anytime she saw me sitting by myself and made me feel so loved and cared for. I geuiniely looked forward to seeing her every Sunday, even if it was simply passing her in the halls. She made a baby blanket for my baby girl, which I will treasure forever. I will miss her presence, kind remarks and warm heart.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Lynne's passing. I had the pleasure of working with her at the beginning of my teaching career. She was always so considerate, sweet, generous, caring, funny, and a wonderful friend. She devoted her life to giving a voice to those who did not have one by not only helping children, but animals as well. Lynne devoted more than 30 years working with students who have hearing impairments. Her love of animals was also easy to see. She was a great teacher and an amazing person. Her contagious smile and positive attitude could immediately brighten your day. I pray that her family finds some comfort in their memories and in the knowledge that she touched the lives of so many with her faith and kindness. Lynne will be greatly missed.

I am so sorry to learn of Lynne's passing. I owned and operated the Tallmadge Ship Center for years up until last year and she was absolutely one of my favorite customers. Even though she was tiny, she would burst through the door and make a huge entrance saying "well hello beautiful!" The magnitude that she cared about her kids and grandkids was evident with every package she sent them. She was always so happy and upbeat. I remember her big furry hat that I used to tell her she wore about 10 months out of the year. My condolences to her family. I will miss her.

What a wonderful person...Lynne was one of my very dearest friends. We met at Church in about 1965...she was always beautiful, good, and full of life. She kept a positive attitude through the trials and 'down-times', had a great sense of humor, etc. I will never forget her. She will be my friend, forever. And whichever one of the family members who first thought to put the phone voicemail message of--"This is the Massic Summer Home--some are home and some are not"-- really encapsulates the fun and personality of this fine woman and her dear offspring!
