Lynn Margaret Kostel

December 17, 1964 – April 8, 2019

Loving wife, devoted mother, true friend

Lynn was the youngest of 3 children in a family that moved often and was close-knit. She met her husband Bill while attending Iowa State University, and moved to Ft. Worth with him, where they married on March 18, 1989. Lynn and Bill loved the outdoors and hiked and camped frequently.  They enjoyed the natural beauty of our land. Lynn had a successful sales career at Steelcase and loved the challenge. Lucas was born in 2004, and Lynn was a delighted and devoted mother. The family lived in North Texas, Phoenix and Albuquerque, and Lucas grew in a family that enjoyed the company of family and friends, the outdoors, puzzles, games, and animals.  She especially loved her dogs!  Lynn was always thoughtful of others in remembering their special occasions.

Lynn courageously battled cancer for 11 years and participated in efforts to support cancer research, including multiple walks of 60 miles over 3 days. Faith in God throughout this life journey was the source of her strength and she assured her family that she will be with the angels, watching over them and continuing to love them always.

Heavenly Father, thank you for the blessing of Lynn in our lives.
