She enjoyed a vibrant and varied life throughout her 74 years. Lynn was born in New York City to Lucille Bourgeois Dutton and Charles Dean Dutton and spent her school years in Delaware and Louisiana. After graduating from Wesley College in Dover, Del., Lynn joined the civilian work staff supporting the U.S. Air Force at Rabat, Morocco, in North Africa, and then worked for 20th Century Fox Studios in Hollywood, Calif. Lynn moved to Baton Rouge after giving birth to her daughter in 1965 and began working for Ethyl Corp. She later joined the staff of the LSU Department of Chemistry and thrived in the LSU community.
