Rich and family,

We hold so many great memories of our times together. You were good neighbors. When we came to Alaska you were so hospitable and Lynn's cooking was the best.
She will be missed. Prayers for all of you.

Lynn... you had that smile and laugh that was infectious. You took us `younguns´ in the Academy- and cut a lot of our hair ... even after you started the B&B. I don´t know why you had to leave us so soon... I guess the good lord has some important things for you to do in his house.

Until we meet again- save us a spot, and Rest in Peace dear friend. Dick, Rich Jr., Tracy and all the crew... big hugs to you all.
Much love - the Honeman´s... Paul and Val

Lynnette was hiring or training some young hair stylists and offered free haircuts to see if the young ladies had the talent. I got a couple of new (and unusual) haircuts. It was fun, tho. I still have the little WSD Deputy Doll, in full uniform and stetson holding his nightstick on my office shelf that she made for me.
Dick, I am heartbroken to hear of your and our loss. She was one of a kind.

While patrolling the South West district of Waukesha County with Dick Stouff, it was always a true honor to be invited into the Stouff residence where Lynnette had prepared a great dinner.
Lynnette´s hospitality truly appreciated. My memory of Lynnette is that she was a strong advocate for the Waukesha County Sheriff´s Department and the Waukesha County Deputy Sheriff´s Association.
My sincere condolences to Dick and the entire Stouff family.

Dick and I were squad partners at the Sheriff´s Department. When we rode in the S/W Lynnette would make dinner for us every shift. I loved her cooking and her Beans were second to none. Thanks Lynnette for being a friend. Rest in Peace Mort

I had tried for years to get Lynnette´s baked beans recipe. They were the absolute best! When she and Dick moved from Wisconsin to Alaska , avgroup of us helped them pack and load the truck. When we were done, each of us was given an envelope, which held a gift card for a restaurant. My wife gave me another envelope, which she was instructed by Lynette to give to me after they had left...it was her baked beans recipe. I have made those beans many times, but never without calling them "Lynnette´s Baked Beans". Many times, during our conference call roll call, Dick would say "Lynnette is having pork chops at 7:00. If you´re in the area, drop in for supper". She also was my barber for several years. She was good people and I hold many fond memories of her. Rest in peace, sweet lady...
