Some of us will remember the department stores in town (Famous Barr & Stix in particular) had a teenage Fashion Board group which was recruited to be ombudsmen to the community of young folks aka teenagers for the stores. One had to audition for the Fashion Board, and I'm pretty sure my memory is correct that Lynn was one...I'm sure I have something in our KHS65 archives which would prove my memory correct. In more recent years I learned she had joined our local chapter of United Daughters of the Confederacy so I called and chatted with her. Unfortunately I never did succeed in encouraging her to attend a meeting, but she did have some health/dietary challenges that made 'lunch out with the girls' not so doable. At any rate, we had lovely chats. She and Fairfax lived in Glendale for many years but unfortunately she never did attend any of our KHS65 reunion activities... now it is too late to woo her into joining us for our 2025 upcoming 60th reunion. We will though remember all of those who have gone before us so she will not be forgotten.
