AGDLynn

[DoctorD]

Hi all,

AGDLynn has been a regular poster in GreekChat for years - in fact, she was how I found out about it. You could even say that because of her, AGDee and I became very good friends, because we got to know each other even better because of GreekChat. AGDee has been one of my rocks for the past few years, and is one of my go to people in this world.

Anyway, I received word this morning that AGDLynn is in ICU. She was diagnosed with leukemia last year, and has had ups and downs, certainly, but was full of hope. The word today is that doctors are expecting no change, are giving very little time left on this earth, and she will be moved to hospice tomorrow.

If ever there was an Alpha Gam sister who bled red, buff, and green, it is Lynn. I've known her for well over 20 years - we met when she was a chapter advisor for Gamma Tau, our chapter at the University of West Georgia, and I worked with her as her province director. There were times she drove me nuts, but I always knew that her heart was pure and honest, and all she wanted was what was best for "her girls" and her chapter. I've enjoyed seeing her at many gatherings in and around Atlanta for years, and when I moved back to Atlanta, made sure she was on the invite list for the open house/house blessing at my new place. Of course she and her husband came. It's just what she did.

I know Lynn would want all of you to know, as she adored GreekChat, and got a lot of joy in this forum. Please join me and many sisters in wrapping her and her husband in prayers as she transitions.

Much love, AGDLynn. You touched more people than you know.

Please give my regards and good wishes to Lynn. I have noticed her absence on GC and she has been missed.

I met Lynn at that Convention when we took a big group photo of all the greekchatters. I think it was Palm Springs. (I think it was actually our Centennial convention in Chicago, wasn't it?) Lynn LOVED meeting Alpha Gams wherever she went. She is one of the most thoughtful people I know. When Hypo got into Barnard, Lynn sent her a wallet that was made out of a NYC map. It was so cool and Hypo was so touched that someone she'd never even met cared enough to send that to her.

I never dreamed that your housewarming party would be the last time I would see Lynn. I'm glad it is just what she did because I got to see her.

My prayers are with her.

My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family during this difficult time.

I am so heart broken. Lynn is such a wonderful lady. I am praying for her.

[DrPhil]

My heart goes out.

[knight_shadow]

She is in my thoughts.

[AOII Angel]

Oh, I am so sorry to hear that Lynn is ailing! I hope that she is surrounded by family and friends in this time. I will miss having her on GC. She is an integral part of this community. My thoughts are with her and her family.

This is very sad news. I love how she is such a cheerleader for Alpha Gam. She's in my prayers.

[AZTheta]

Prayers for love and light, and deep peace and compassion. As Lynn moves to the Great Mystery, I wish her godspeed.

[sigmadiva]

I will say a prayer for her and her family.

Thank you for letting us know.

[Sister Havana]

This is terrible news. She seemed like such a nice person, with such devotion to AGD. Good thoughts to her, her family, and her AGD sisters during this difficult time.

[IHeartUGA]

My heart hurts for her. She is such a wonderful person and I will miss her dearly. I had the chance to meet her when she came to Savannah a year or so ago. She brought me squirrel presents. LIEP, Lynn.

I pray for peace and comfort for Lynn and her family. Thank you for taking the time to let us know. That was very thoughtful of you.
