Lynn loved being a mother but being a grandmother to her grandson Raymond was the best.   She loved to play bridge, go gambling, watch gameshows, she was a Den Mother for both of her sons, and she grew flowers all around her house inside and out.  She was also an avid Hawkeye Fan.  Her biggest goal always was to make certain that everyone else's needs were met before hers.
