Lynn was born on November 29, 1968, in Dubuque, Iowa, the daughter of Gerald John and Margaret Ann (Dolphin) Carr.

Lynn earned both her Bachelor of Architecture and Bachelor of Religious Studies from Iowa State University. Throughout her life, she faced numerous health challenges with resilience. After a courageous nine-year battle, she lost her life to breast cancer. Her beloved dog, Teddy, was a source of immense joy, comfort, and companionship during her journey.

She had a deep love for travel, always eager to explore new places, foods, and cultures. An exceptional bread maker and a devoted chai tea latte enthusiast, Lynn will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
