Rest in peace beautiful lady. I remember when I first started working at Brookfield New World Lyn would join us for smoke. She was always a positive lady. She was straight up and would say what she thought. Poor Dean got an earful every now and then. I still remember when they put a smokers room in our staffroom we were all sitting in there smoking away then Lynn walked in and said what the hell do they think we are criminals smoking something else. We always had a good laugh with you Lynn. Sending blessing to Dean and all your family.
