She was a proud graduate of the University of Florida, and later earned a Master's degree in Physical Therapy from Duke University. Lynne served as a dedicated Physical Therapist until her retirement, positively impacting countless lives through her compassionate service.

She served as past President of the Central Florida Genealogical Society, sharing her love of history and family ties with others.

Beyond her professional life and community service, Lynne was an ardent traveler. She loved exploring new places, immersing herself in different cultures, and making memories with her family. But above all else, Lynne was a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Her family was her joy, and she cherished every moment spent with them.

Lynne is survived by her son, Kenneth Knorr, her daughter-in-law, Tina Knorr, her grandson Michael Knorr, her granddaughter Lauren Bergeron, and five great-grandchildren.
