He was the eighth of 11 children. Lynn was delivered by his grandmother Jones and oldest sister LaVaughn. After Lynn was born, they wrapped him in blankets and put him in the oven of the old wood cook stove because he was cold and blue.
Lynn moved to Lovell with his family when he was six years old. He grew up in Lovell and joined the Navy, spending three years in Alaska. When he returned to Wyoming, he married Patsy Belles and they had one child, Linda Ann. This marriage ended later in divorce.

Lynn loved and enjoyed fishing, hunting, woodworking and being with his family. Lynn was 83 on Saturday, Sept. 30, 2006. He was able to spend his day with a loving family by his bedside.
Lynn is survived by his wife of almost 42 years, Lois; one sister, Donna Reynolds of Winchester, Tenn.; daughter Linda Mustard; and three stepsons, Chuck, Terry and Roger Hoffman. He is also survived by seven grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.
