In college Lynn took up flying and then went into a career training airline personnel. After she and her husband moved to California, she "retired" to care for her two daughters. Volunteering at her church and working at the theatre kept her busy during the school years. When Lynn's father was diagnosed with terminal cancer, she cared for him during the last months of his life. Years later, Lynn brought her mother from Minnesota following a heart attack and cared for her for four years. Seeing firsthand the impact of home care, Lynn is a strong advocate for seniors staying where they can thrive and wants to dedicate her time to make it possible.
