He kept his tractors spotless, did his own tiling, liked country music, built a basketball court, taught everyone to drive stick shift, mastered the front flip on the trampoline, often rode his bike no-handed around the 5-mile block, had three VCRs going to record shows, drove the big van across the country many times, and was a Camaro owner for four decades. He was a wonderful and supportive husband, father, step-father, and grandfather who will be greatly missed by his family. Also surviving Lynn is his brother, Loran. Lynn was preceded in death by his parents, Clyde and Evelyn, and his siblings: Lyle and Becky (Shelton). A casual, come-and-go celebration of life will be held on Sunday, May 18, from 2:00-4:00 pm at the Trinity Lutheran Church Social Hall in Webster City.
