“Jewel and family, I was much surprised to hear about the passing of Lynwood. The short time that I had known Lynwood was enjoyable when we would meet at The Bluffs pool or on the pier and visit as though we had been friends forever. I remember seeing Lynwood for the last time on the pier in the evening where we discussed our love for our families and the pleasure they gave us having them in our presence. Lynwood will be missed by his many friends. You are in my prayers during this stressful time”
