Mr Lynn was always so full of energy and solid character. He used to take time for us at his welding shop at Watkins corner when we were kids. And he had a long, full life.

Uncle Lynn was such fun to be around. I loved to hunt squirrels and ducks with him (and he was a crack shot) then take our catch home and have a fine dinner.
Most importantly, he preached and defended the Gospel of Christ and I am thankful for his work in the Lord's Kingdom.
He will be sorely missed, I have fond memories of him, when he was a tractor mechanic too; his favorite tool was a pair of channel-locks. He could just about take a John Deere tractor apart in the field with that tool. He was from a very hearty generation.
My condolences to Jennie, Larry, Ricky and Darrin and all their families and we are praying for all of you!
My only regret is that he left us before we got back there!
