Lynn was a very sweet and kind young lady. well taught by her mother. Our families use to go on outings together.Lynn and David was well behaved and well mannered. Lynn will always have a place in my heart and I will always remember(if Allah wills) the joy on her face when she got married. Praise Allah for allowing her to achieve that level of happiness. surely, Allah takes what is His and what He gives is His and to all things He has appointed a time...so have patience and be rewarded.
