I will miss my brother more than words can ever express.He has been the back bone to to our family,always keeping us all informed of the news and updates on every one in our family.Lynn was a very loving and compassionate person,he always had time for every one and made us all feel special to him,as he certainly was Special to us.I have so many fond memories of him…..I remember as a kids Lynn,Johnny and me were rabbit hunting and we were by an old cemetery and Lynn went up to a grave to read a headstone.While he was reading it there was an earth quake and he thought the grave was busting open,he ran down and jumped off a bank that was so high that the jar knocked the wind out of him…Over the years we would laugh and talk about it when ever we got together…I have so many fond child hood memories of him..He will surely be missed as he was loved by so many of us.Was very fortunate to have Lynn spend some time with us while we lived in Alaska,there my children got to know and love him,as we lived so far away from each other…My condolences to the family….Love you all….Joe and Ruby

Our hearts go to the family for your loss, love Rick and family
Poot Baby will be forever loved and remembered. He was a great, caring man who loved family.
We shared so many good times during the time he lived in Nome, Alaska with us in 1990. A bunch of us shared an apartment there, and we would ride 3 & 4 wheelers down the beach to fish or have a bbq. He even got in on a moose and bear hunt, or at least the retrieval part.
My favorite memory that I would like to share was a Polar Bear Hat that Lynn got, which my brothers shitzu dog was very infatuated with that fur hat. We would throw the hat on the floor just to laugh at the dog courting that hat. Lynn would laugh and tell us not to be messing up his hat!
To all our family, just know that I am thinking of you all.
All my love, Violet
Gail and Landon,
I am very sorry!! If you need anything just let us know.
Gail,
I’ve prayed to find the right words of comfort to express to you, Landon, Kathy Lynn, and Little Lynn. I am sorry I cannot find any words to say other than, ‘I love you -all’.

Gail & Landon you are both in my prayers.
Gail, my heart goes out to you during this time and pray that you will feel the love of your friends and family praying for you, and the love of God’s strong arms lifting you up to carry you. Hold tight to the good memories you shared together, and may you soon feel the sunlight shining in your heart again as you walk out of this dark valley. Love you, Jean
Well, it’s taking me a week to be able to see straight enough to write my condolences. It’s so hard to believe I won’t be seeing his smiling face everytime I walk into the Moose Lodge, having him me ask how my day went and whether or not I wanted to pitch in on the next Keno ticket. I’ll never forget (in the late 80’s) when he let me take out his big blue Chevy and I brought it back covered in mud. He just shook his head and said ‘Now, go wash it.’ I thought for sure I’d be in big trouble. I will always think of Lynn when I sing the Tennessee Flattop box, his favorite request. I’ve never got to meet the family in N.C. but I’ve known Doug, Cindy and family for years and we’ve all had good times fishing in the ponds, telling stories and playing music. Even if Lynn would never sing. I truly respected, loved and enjoyed Lynn from the the soul of my being and he will sincerely be missed. XOXO
Gail, It’s been a lot of years but I’ve thought often of you and Lynn. He was an exceptional man, good friend to all. I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Patti
Dear Cagle Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Lynn’s passing just today from a fellow Terminex worker. Lynn did our service years ago and was always such a kind man. You don’t know me, but I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am. Lynn did the service at our house for many years. I will pray for comfort and strength for your family during this time of your loss. God bless you all!
