We Had a Wonderful Uncle, One who never really grew old; His smile was made of sunshine, and his heart was solid gold; his eyes were as bright as shining stars, and his laughter, his laughter was contagious. We had a wonderful uncle, and that’s the way it will always be. But take heed because he still keeping an eye on all of us, so let’s make sure He will like what he sees.

Uncle Frank Lynn was the best! As a kid I was always so happy just to see him walk into our house with his great big smile. He was a kind friendly uncle, kid like in spirit!
I will always remember the times he would just come to our house and say ” You kids want to go to Milwaukee and see the planes fly?” We would be so excited just to go sit with him in the car and watch the planes take off and land. That
was a big thing for a little kid and I will always love him for that memory and many more.
Uncle Frank Lynn had the biggest heart and brightest spirit! Which I know shines now in heaven. We have lost one of the greatest!!
Goodbye Uncle!
May God bless the family

To My Uncle Frank, one of the sharpest dressers I know. You will be truly missed. I remember as a young child; you helping my mom see after us and helping my mom take those long drives to Mississippi. You were always soft spoken and kind. If any of your nieces and nephews did something wrong, you would talk to us and encourage us. You always had a smile on your face (I think that’s where I get it from). You never forgot about your children and made sure they participated in family functions. I will miss you so much. I’m sending all my love from Dallas, Texas to Heaven where you are with grandma and grandpa. Rest in Heaven Uncle Frank, I love you.
Your Niece Giselle
