     She was born July 9, 1933 in Yonkers, NY, the daughter of Alexander Kenne` and Anne Wolz Kenne`. In addition to her parents Lynn was preceded in death by her husband, William Ronald “Ron” Davies (father of their three children, Kimon, Jennifer, and Christine) and also second husband, Herb Goddard.

    Lynn and husband, Ron, were owners of Village Greenhouse and Gift Shop in Millbrook, NY where Lynn was a noted floral designer. One of Lynn’s fondest memories was when she won the Gold Ribbon for a floral design at the state fair. Lynn and family spent many years in the New England states before moving South.

     Lynn was a faithful member of St. Mary’s Episcopal Church and she dearly  loved her church family.

     In addition to her creative talent with floral design Lynn enjoyed cooking for family and friends. Her pound cakes were light as a feather and delectable to eat. Lynn was an extraordinary woman of God whose resounding faith and love for family was unmatched.
