Icould not have asked or a better wie and partner.She is the center o our amily; she is an involved momand supports Michael and I in all that we do. Lynn is my
best riend, and I think she is as beautiul today as she
was the day we met. Lynn and I complement each others
strengths and weaknesses. She is not only my biggest an,
she completes who I am and I thank God that I have her in
my lie.
Lynn was born into a military amily. Being a general ocer, judge and attorney in the Army, her ather
was assigned to posts all over the world. When her Dads job moved, so did the amily. Moving so oten
brought challenges, but it also developed Lynns natural ability to meet people, make new riends and
adapt to new things. Lynn has always
loved helping people. In high school,
she volunteered as a candy striper
in hospitals and nursing homes. She
obtained a degree in social work and
later served as a trained emergency
medical technician or our local re
department. So, my wie has literally
saved peoples lives on a regular
basis. Is that cool or what?
