1938 – 2021
Beloved Son, Brother, Father of 4, Grandfather of 3 and Great-Grandfather of 4. Passed away on May 26, 2021 due to natural causes. Lynn was preceded in death by his beloved wife of 62 years Linda, son James, his Father Adrian, as well two sisters Carroll and Bonnie, and brother Jack.
Lynn had a brief Military career, ending in 1961. Followed by a long career as a long/short hauler and Commercial Driver. He retired from Boeing in 2000. In his “retirement” years he enjoyed short trips, lunches with the North and Sound End Retirees; and looked forward to the trips down to Utah to see the Family. Famous for always finding a Quarter behind the ear, he was always a fan favorite with the kids at family gatherings. Even though he lived in Washington since the 1960’s, Lynn always considered Utah “home”, and he cherished the times he visited. When preferring to put his feet up and relax for a bit Lynn enjoyed watching Westerns and listening to classic country music.
Survived by his Mother Pearl, many brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews; children Jody (Dave), Linda, Lynn, Jr.; grandchildren Jessica (Robby), Rick, Suzanne; and 4 great granddaughters. Lynn was a special person with a sense of humor and was loved deeply by everyone who knew him. Heaven shines a bit brighter now and Lynn will be missed greatly.
In lieu of flowers, the Family requests that you make a donation in Lynn’s name to a local charity of your choice.
