 JOHNSTON COUNTY CAPITAL DEMOCRAT TISHOMINGO - AUGUST 5, 1937 Page 1 
MRS. LYNN PASSES AWAY AT HER HOME  FUNERAL SERVICES ARE HELD AT CHURCH OR
CHRIST     
Mrs. Otis Lynn, wife of the city school board member, died at her home in
Tishomingo Saturday night after an illness of several weeks. Funeral
services under the direction of J.J. Stobaugh were held Monday afternoon at
the Church of Christ with special music by a quartet from the Madill Church
of Christ. Pall bearers were Charles Draper, J.D. Dunlap, Clive Murray,
Jimmy Moore, Forrest Armstrong and H.D. Workman. Besides her husband, Mrs.
Lynn is survived by three children, Elmore Lynn, Floyd Lynn and Deloras
Lynn; two sisters, Mrs. Eula Abshire, of Shawnee, and Mrs. Myrtle
Whitfield, Ardmore; and a brother, J.Y. Lampton, of California. All
survivors except the brother were here for the funeral. Mrs. Lynn became
ill about the first of the year, but her condition was not regarded as
serious until only five weeks ago. She was taken to several hospitals and
clinics, but became steadily worse. It was believed that she might have
tuberculosis and she was taken to the tubercular hospital at Talihina, but
diagnosis there revealed a heart ailment and cancer of the lung and she was
returned home. Mrs. Lynn was reared in Oklahoma, living for many years in
Marshall County. She and Mr. Lynn were married in 1913, and moved to
Tishomingo about 16 years ago. She was baptized into the Church of Christ
at Madill a short while before moving to Tishomingo.
