I had met Lynden in accounting class at Business College, and we married in February 1974. Before we married, he accepted the Lord as his personal Saviour. Together we shared a happy marriage 41 years. His passing was sudden and unexpected, following gallbladder surgery.
“Lyn” as he was affectionately known, was born with eye problems, but it never seemed to stop him from doing any form of work. He had many talents despite his handicap, and was known for his quick wit and sense of humor! He had a fantastic memory and could tell you the dates of birthdays and special events, as well as phone numbers. Lyn loved music and working on his computer. He also worked with our sister- in-law making beautiful trees out of gemstones and wirer. He enjoyed attending the craft shows to sell these beautiful trees!
Lyn made many wonderful meatloaves and pies for church luncheons over the years and always brewed delicious hot coffee for everyone. He had a special love for his cats, Inky and Chloe, and always took such wonderful care of them! Lyn is missed so very much by his loving family and friends. One day we will join him when our Lord calls us to our heavenly home as well.
His wife, Ruth
Lyn’s favorite Psalm:
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.
Serve the lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
Know ye that the Lord, He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
For the Lord is good, his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.
Psalm 100
