I started the first grade with Ronald Lynn in September, 1949. I've known him and most of his brothers and sisters growing up. When someone passes away who you have grown up with, it is the same as loosing a family member. My sincere condolences to all of Ronald Lynn's family. I've never forgotten him and may he be with our Lord at this time. He is in a much better life now in mind, body and spirit.
