"Oh where to start...Aunt Lynn was a person unlike any other. Every single time I saw her she was so uplifting. I can not remember one bad memory of her. She helped me make my dad a fathers day gift. I was probably 8ish and wanted to make my dad the best home made gift my heart could imagine. She gathered wood, nails, paint...whatever I needed. I made him a white cross out of two pieces of wood. Painted his address and name on it and I was so proud. She also bought me a guinea pig for my birthday one year. Mom didnt know and she had no choice but to smile when I walked into that room and saw my gift in a plastic baby pool running around! Every time I visited her as an adult she made me feel like the most important person in the room. She always and I mean always told me how beautiful I was and how im such a good mom. She made you feel so warm. We always love and will miss you Aunt Lynn."
In loving memory of
Lynn Watkins
