He was born Aug. 5, 1930, in Vernal to Sylvester " Silver" and Thelma Corless Licht. Lynn married Roena Hatch on Sept. 17, 1956 and they enjoyed 54 wonderful years together.

Lynn had a special gift for friends — he truly would help anyone at anytime.
He graduated from the Box Elder High Class of 1950; he served his country and was proud to be a veteran of the Korean War.

He drove a water truck for several years, he was a foreman for PW Martin Water Hauling Service for 35 years, and he also worked as shop foreman for 4½ years for Uintah County.
After retiring he loved working in the yard, mowing his lawn and tending his flowers. He loved college basketball; he was always a man with a plan.
He is survived by his wife, Roena; a daughter, Rhonda (Craig) Batty of Vernal; a son, Jeffery Lynn Licht of Evanston, Wyo.; one brother, Lyle Licht of The Colony, Texas; nine grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.
