"We met while working at ISU Library and became fast friends taking breaks and lunch together almost every day. We kept in contact after we retired and had lunch with "our group" once in awhile. In fact we were going to meet after Phil and her returned from their recent trip. My heartfelt condolences to Phil and family. I cannot believe this has happened to her. She was always taking the healthy path. Our group will miss her and will remember our friendship forever. May God put his arms around her family to help them through this journey. Marlene Matthewson."

"I remember Lynne's smile and how very excellent she was at her job at the Library. The last time I saw her after her retirement, we had a nice visit and she was smiling as always. She was a force. She will be missed!"

"I worked with Lynne at the ISU library, though not directly. She always had a smile on her face and would help me out whenever I needed something. What a loss! Much love and peace to your family."
