Lynnette was a force of nature who was strong willed, loyal and brave. She grew up in New England and then settled in Texas for the last 41 years. Her roots were deep in both areas. After graduating Peabody High School in 1971, Lynnette then served in the Navy as a medical assistant. Moving to Texas, she then went on to become a certified respiratory therapist which she loved, creating more special friendships along the way. Lynnette and David enjoyed many great trips with the family, days out on the boat on Lake Georgetown, Lake Austin and Lake LBJ. Her visits to New England were also meaningful to all, and always brought back her New England accent and sense of being young again. She will be missed and remembered by many, and although we no longer have her physical presence, she will stay within our hearts forever.
