I wish I had better news. Lynn has entered hospice care. Most of you - especially those around here - know Lynn and Lynn Jr. Many of you who don't, probably do and don't even know it. Prayers needed.

Sad to hear. By far, the best moto announcer I've seen around Texas. Thanks for everything Lynn!

I believe so Mrs C, I first met him announcing my old local track, Shreveport MX in the 70's. One of the best.

I doubt there are too many races Lynn hasn't done. He was even the podium interviewer at some SX races.

I was really glad to see Lynn at some of the vintage races in the last year. I first met Lynn at Moiser Valley . He always had something good to say about everybody. He will be in our prayers. Thanks for all the good times.

Just a class act, all the way. Every member of our family has Lynn in our thoughts tonight. It has been a pleasure listening to you work your magic on the mic. In my opinion, you are the best at your craft.

Many prayers sent. I too met him for the first time at Mosier Valley in 2002. What a terrific guy, always had a smile on his face and very very nice to the kids. God Bless

So sad to hear...Lynn was the VOICE we heard every weekend going through the amateur ranks...Lake Whitney, Ponca, etc......he was a friend to all and had a smile every single time I saw him. Lynn was always a breath of fresh air at the track and a man I will never forget. He is a fighter with a heart of gold. Keeping him and LJ in my prayers!

Taken from Lynn's facebook page (I couldn't find words that said it much better then this)...posted by Cy Prado...." Lynn while we pray for a miracle, we also embrace you returning home. I know you have a relationship with Jesus Christ so there is no pain in death. We're praying for God's good will to prevail.

Lynn interviewed my son at the 2004 World Mini after he got his first ever podium finish at an amateur national, we will never forget how Lynn treated him like he had just won a championship.....What a great man!!!


Lynn our family has you in our prayers,
