Remembering with fondness, my youngest sister, Lynne. Before her first child, Amy, was born, she and Ron moved out to Kent, WA where my husband and I lived. It was such fun to spend time with her and watch our children grow up together for a few years. I really miss her!
I miss your mom so much. I remember so many wonderful conversations we had at her kitchen table. She was so incredibly proud of each of you and she especially enjoyed showing off her grand kids pictures. What an amazing blessing to have received so many hugs from Lynne. Those are some of my favorite moments with your mom. My husband. Chris and I smile to think of your tenants being surrounded by the spirit of Gods love in your childhood home. The Schouteren's
Yesterday I was looking for a recipe and came across one Lynne had shared with me in her own handwriting. It made me happy to think of her and to know that she is together with Ron. She will always have a special place in my heart and it will forever make me smile when I recall memories of her and Ron. They were two hearts meant to be together!
My prayers and thoughts are with Lynne's family. I worked with Lynne years ago at Faith Church and had some of her children in Awana. She will be missed.
Lynne (Oley) and I went to high school together. I had the privilege of reconnecting with her through FB and was able to see her in person a few years back. I'm so sorry we didn't have longer to renew our friendship. My son lives in Salem now. I tried to connect with her there, but it just didn't work out. Praying for comfort and peace for the family. I know she is glad to be with Ron again and with her Lord and Savior.
My prayers are with the family. Didnt get a chance to meet Lynne, just grew up with one of my best friends, Ron Stevens. It is comforting knowing their are in each others arms again. My God keep you both in his arms.
Lynne and Ron, were amazing examples to us as “young marrieds” group at FBC, Kent Washington. We enjoyed years of friendship which continued thru Facebook after we moved. Just seeing this announcement and am thankful the Lord took her home to be united with HIM. Amy, Tim, Stella and all who loved her, Barry and I send our earthly condolences and rejoice in the fact we all will be reunited together one day in the presence of our Lord and Savior.
I met Lynne in 1970 when we were both freshmen at Trinity College in Deerfield, IL. We roomed together the second semester and discovered a shared sense of humor, love of everything I Love Lucy, many inside jokes and fun accents that would liven our conversations over all these years. We were in each other's weddings and shared across the miles in each other's lives, lo, these many years (as we liked to say). She and Ron generously paid my way out to the "Pacific Northwest" for a visit and they also sent money for me to buy a new "pal" when our dear dog was put to sleep in 2011. I dubbed Molly, my new dog, Lynne's "god-dog-ter". Ron and Lynne were very giving and loving and just very special. I will miss my precious friend, but look forward to reuniting with her in Heaven. Lynne is living her best life in the presence of Jesus! Love you, Olbuns!
We were neighbors for over 10years. My husband Chris would stop by to help get the Steven's computer up and running like it should. The first time I hugged Lynne, was the afternoon when the fire truck and EMS showed up when Ron was in distress. From that point on she was my sweet friend Lynne. We would hold hands and sometimes hug through prayers for eachother with tears of grief, of thankfulness, of relief and of release running down our faces. I would and always be so incredibly grateful for her friendship and love.
