Condolence: Sorry to hear of Lynne's passing and for the pain you now feel; My heart goes out to you. What I find to be comforting is to remember the wonderful memories of my dead loved one. I also think about the new memories I will make with him when he comes back to life on earth. Our Creator has promised, "Your dead will live." (Isaiah 26:19) I patiently look forward to that time when he will live as the Creator intended. The following scriptures describe what life will be like for my loved one, Lynne and all who have died. I hope these promises by the Creator help ease your pain as well. (Revelation 21:4; Psalm 37:10,11; Isaiah 65:21-25)

Condolence: Lynne and I both started working for USA Swimming in 1982. I have many special memories of our two years working together. She was a special person who touched many lives. I continued to work at USA Swimming after Lynne left and she would frequently come by the office when she was in town visiting her family. It was a great pleasure to see her and the children. Lynne was a dedicated mother and her faith was strong. She fought a brave battle for many years and my heart goes out to the family. Carol Burch

Condolence: So sorry to hear of the loss of Lynne! Prayers and special thoughts to you all. Sincerely, Sally (swim coach from way back)

Condolence: what a wonderful woman, wonderful family. I look forward to embracing Lynne in Heaven, I know she's hearing those words, "Well done, good and faithful servant," right now. Oh to be in the glorious presence of the father and be held in His embrace, I'm envious but also so joyful for Lynne. Miss her, but will see her soon, no doubt!

Condolence: Our sympathies to your family. We were neighbors from 1995-1999, when we moved to Pullman Washington. Our daughter Micah babysat the 5 boys and called them the "killer B's". Lynne was a great neighbor and dedicated mother. May God grant comfort and peace to all the family. Frank and Sheri Jeschke

Condolence: Leslie, Duane, Uncle Hank, all you beautiful children and the whole family -- Words really cannot express how sorrowful I am at Lynne's passing. She was really such a remarkable person, a woman of resilience, wisdom, and character. She was steadfast in her faith, and I so appreciated her intelligent way of looking at things and the way she raised you kids. And what a wonderful sense of fun! I treasure the all- too-brief times I've gotten to be with your precious family. Please know that you have ALWAYS been in my thoughts and prayers and that you continue to be. I pray for each one of you and always lift each of you up to our dear heavenly Father in prayer. May our precious Lord come along side each one of you and bless you and comfort you. It grieves me so that she had to leave us so soon.

Condolence: George and Colleen Hamblin and daughters Shelley and Corey Cook send condolences to the family. While we did not know the family well, it was obvious Lynne was a devoted mother and caring person, always happy to stop and talk when she saw us. We were so hopeful she would win the battle with cancer. Please accept our prayers and deepest sympathy.

Condolence: Our hearts are saddened by Lynne's passing but we rejoice that she was a child of God. We pray for provision, protection and blessings over her children.

Condolence: We are saddened to hear of Lynn's passing. She was one of the most dedicated women I know to the most important job ever: motherhood. Her devotion to her family and dedication to helping them reach their dreams and goals was an inspiration. She fought valiantly in her battle against cancer with a strength and grace that only Lynn could carry. She will be missed.

Condolence: Lynne was simply one of the best people we have ever known. She is the one that you could turn to whenever you were lost by what life had handed you. We literally shared our children in the early years, the kids were always at one another's home. Lynne was the one who showed me the way to a personal relationship with Christ which in turn, brought my family into a relationship with Him. We have so many memories with Lynne and her children, all of them precious. She will be greatly missed here but oh how much brighter Heaven is with her there. God bless all of her children and family, May He who is the Lord of all, comfort and keep you in His arms.

Condolence: I met Lynne when we worked together at USA Swimming many years ago and we kept in touch after that when she would stop into the office to visit when she was in Colorado Springs. I also sang with her mom in the Velvet Hills Chorus. They were both wonderful gentle women who left us far too soon. My sincerest condolences to her family. She will be greatly missed but her grace and wisdom will continue to guide her children; they are her wonderful legacy. God bless you in these sad times.

Condolence: Words cannot adequately express the sadness we feel for the Vagt family in this time of great loss. Lynne was perhaps the finest person we have ever met and worthy of "Mother of the Century" status. We will cherish the time and memories we enjoyed with her and will fondly remember her wit, wisdom and intelligence. Her memory will live with us always.

Condolence: Jim, Margaret, Spencer, Harrison and Clayton Livermore would like to say how sorry we are to read about Lynne's passing. She was such a wonderful person and outstanding mother. She always made sure her children came first. She was always the first to volunteer to help. Lynne will be missed.
