She earned a Masters Degree in Psychology from Pennsylvania State University in 1972 and returned to work at RPC. She left in 1991 to earn a Master of Social Work Degree from Syracuse University. She finished her work career at Livingston County Mental Health Clinic, retiring in 2000.

A longtime resident of Fairport, NY, Lynn was an ace pitcher in Perinton Recreation women’s softball league. She loved gardening, sports, nature, birds, animals, and traveling with her family to wild woods, oceans and lakes. After retirement, Lynn began volunteer work as a Missionary to people in the inner city at People’s Ministry in Christ.

Lynn loved traveling with her sister, Donna Scott, Lansing, NY, and visiting with her younger brother, John (Jay) Scott and his wife Norma, Bradenton, FL; she took great pride in her nephews and their wives, Jeremy Scott and Mona Mady, Brooklyn, NY, and Justin and Kristen Scott, St. Augustine, FL, and their son, Peyton, all of whom survive her.
