    My deepest condolences to Lynn's family and loved ones. I knew her when we were younger growing up around Paoli. I am grateful to have reconnected with her through social media over the last few years. Wishing you comfort and peace during this difficult time.

    Dear Daniels and Ray families, I am so very sorry to hear of Lynn's passing. There are so many wonderful memories I have of Lynn and "us class of '81 girls" in high school. She was fun loving and a bit of a mischievous daredevil-/ there were lots of parking lot donuts gleefully spun as we tried to keep our feet from stepping in the hole in the backseat floor. She was a leader on the court and always willing to be our mentor and encourager. A good friend with a kind heart. I'm sorry for your loss. She will be missed. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Lynda R. | July 2020

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Michael M. | July 2020

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
