I am sorry for you loss. We were neighbors 45 years ago and Mrs Magnusson was extremely kind and generous towards me. She let us swim and play so loudly, it made an impression on me at the time. I loved how involved your mom seemed to be in everyone’s interests. I will keep your whole family in my thoughts. Mary Nani Higgins Lhotak
I did not know they lived on Lawton Road, I do Remember her she was a lovely lady during swim team.
May God’s embrace comfort the Magnusson Family. Love, Mike and Julie

Dear Jon and family:
We will always remember Lynda as such a beautiful person inside and out – she lit up the room with her smile! In life, Jesus holds our hand and walks with us throughout our journey of faith. In death He lifts us up into His very presence so that we can walk with Him forever, face to face. May you find comfort in knowing that all the burdens of Lynda’s life have passed away, and all the joys of heaven have arrived!
With our deepest sympathy,
Dolores & Jim
May the God of all comfort-comfort you

I’ll always remember our times together and how Lynda was such a kind and gracious host. I thought I was somewhat of an organizer, but she was the queen of organization. She was also a beautiful artist. She loved her kids and she loved Jonny. My heart goes out to the entire family. I know she will be missed. God’s blessings and peace for the entire Magnusson family.
I miss you Mom
