I just saw where my dear friend has passed. We lost touch many years ago but her daughter always kept me informed until Lynn passed away. She was a very special lady and we spent many good times together when she lived in Chattanooga. My son and I drove to St. Louis when she and John married. I am so sorry we lost touch but I knew she was in an assisted living for years. So sorry I couldn’t reach out to her.
