Running in memory of Lynne Werling
Lynne was a gentle spirit and super kind caregiver to her babies and families in the NICU. I loved having the privilege to work with her for years at St Vincent. She was a great mentor, a good friend and an inspiration to so many. The family and loved ones will be in my prayers.
I worked with Lynne for many years in the NICU. She was a gentle spirit and joy to be around. Praying that her family is comforted during this time of loss
I lived in Pike township and when I was driving to and from work I’d see her jogging! Those long braids bouncing as she ran! RIP. Prayers for family.
Dear Chris and Ben, having worked with your mom for many years at St Vincent, I felt as if I knew you as you grew up since your mom was so proud of you and spoke of you often. No one could forget her ever present beautiful smile, her calming way and seeing her running all over Washington Township. Our hearts go out to you for your loss of such a sweet mother.
Lynne was such a special lady! I worked her 26 years with her in the NICU! She was a great nurse, preceptor, friend. She loved her family and to share stories about them! You will be greatly missed and often remembered, dear friend!
Chris and Ben, please know love and prayers surround you and your families as you grieve and celebrate your Mom, Nana’s, earthly life. A lifetime of treasured memories of being friends is not long enough. Lynne has crossed her final finish line, so very proud of her and all of her lifes accomplishments. You both are her greatest joy! For my forever friend, you are missed and you are loved!
With deepest sympathy,
Chris and Ben, Deepest condolences, deepest Peace. We are so sorry for yours loss. Lynne was a wonderful next door neighbor for over twenty years. Both Karen and I will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. Thanks for being a good neighbor. Rob and Karen Pritchard
