Lynnell was a great friend to me all through school. In spite of her own personal troubles, she was always ready to help at a moment's notice. She was sincerely kind and generous, as everyone who knew her was aware.

The world is a better place because Lynell was in it. Hugs and prayers for Jamie and her other family and friends. The memory of her lives on in each of us who knew her.

Nell was a friend to all who knew her. I was blessed to have been one of them. We had some great times together over the years; she left us way too soon. Rest In Peace, sweet friend.

Fond memories. Hot smoggy summer days playing coed softball at the jr high school, sitting in a booth at Fosselman's, heading to Laguna Beach in an overloaded Volkswagen van listening to CSNY and Lynnell's perpetural smile. Rest eternally dear friend.

I remember walking home from SPHS with Lynnell and stopping at her house to hang out. She loved the film "Romeo and Juliet" and had an album of the soundtrack that we listened to and memorized. She was a sweet friend, who I remember was so very excited to become a Tigerette. All the memories I hold of her are dear to my heart, just as she was. May she rest in peace.

I remember Lynnell, I will always remember her. I came across a tiny black and white picture of her just a couple of weeks ago. She was posing in the back yard of Robyn (Hyland) Arnold's house, i think.She was always so happy with people around her. I hope she is kicked back in heaven enjoying her favorite libation just waiting for the rest of us to come along. I will miss her.
