Lynn M Richards, 61, passed away at her residence on the morning of December 29, 2016. At the request of Lynn, there will be no funeral service.
Lynn was born August 19, 1955 in LaGrande, OR to Douglas and Carol (Wood) Watts. During Lynn’s childhood years, the family moved several times in the Pacific Northwest (Wyoming, Montana, Washington and Oregon). In high school, Lynn moved to San Jose, CA where she graduated. She was employed in the dentist industry and eventually relocated back to the Oregon area to be closer to her family.
Lynn has been a Mt. Hood resident for many, many years. She enjoyed sewing, arts of all kinds, and helping the elderly and anyone she felt was an underdog.
Lynn is survived by her mother, Carol Hawthorne, her sisters, Kaye Lessor and Nichole Watts, her bother, Russell Watts, two stepbrothers, James Hawthorne and Jeffrey Hawthorne, and one stepsister, Trina Lyons, as well as many cousins, nieces and nephews.
Lynn was loved and will be very, very missed. There will be a celebration of life for her in the summer, so please look for the ad in the Mountain Times.
