Lynette loved Christmas time. She struggled all year to make it to Christmas. She felt that if she made it till then, she would live into another year. She was able to put her special Christmas tree up this year and do some final shopping for her kids.

She was preceded in death by her grandfather, Clyde C. Minks, Sr., grandfather, Franklin Edward Bell and lastly by an unborn child, who now has his or her mother in Heaven. It is now Christmas time and Heavenly Father has called her home.

Funeral services will be held Friday, Dec. 11, 1998, 2 p.m. at Redwood Memorial Estates, 6500 South Redwood Rd., where friends may call Thursday 6-8 p.m. and Friday one hour prior to services. Interment Redwood Memorial Estates.
