I’ve had quite a few conversations over the years with Lynn. Had plans to stop in at the used book store she worked so hard to get off the ground ( I believe it never came to pass, sadly ). We spoke at length about that project, love of books, etc. How painful to log in and find this. ---

Lynn had a love of fine dining with sophisticated and unflinching epicurean standards. I remember her sharing her and her husbands many diverse dining adventures in Cafe Society. RIP Lynn; and may your table always be ready. ---
