    God bless this kind and loving soul. Her dedication and loving care of Mom-Mom over the years was nothing short of stoic. She is a shining example of a woman’s loving commitment and unselfish care of her family and friends! We will always love you, Lynette, and will never forget you! Our deepest sympathies to her special family.

    My deepest sympathies to Lynette’s family. She was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known, always willing to accept one more into the fold. I truly appreciated the love, acceptance and kindness she showed to my Mom, as the newest sister-in-law so many years ago. She was truly one of a kind and will be missed by many. Well done thou good and faithful servant.

    It was a blessing to visit with Lynette when I was visiting Marie who was living with her at the time. Recently, as I drove down Sollers Wharf Road , I would glance over in her direction and wonder how she was doing. My thoughts and prayers are with Lynette’s family. May you find comfort in happy memories. God give you peace.

    To The Ward Family. My condolences to my other family. Thank you all for allowing me the opportunity to care for “Granny”. She was so full of spunk, care and love. So many times she asked about my family with so much concern. Truly she will be missed because there was none like “Granny”!! ❤❤❤
