Lynn Anne Arbour's Obituary
Lynn Anne Arbour, 78, passed away on November 20th, 2024, at the Mease Dunedin Hospital, in Dunedin, Florida. Lynn was born on July 22nd, 1946, in Lansing, Michigan, the daughter of the late William Woodcock and Eileen Daly Woodcock. She married her beloved husband Robert E Arbour in 1967 and had 3 children together.
Lynn attended Everett High School in Lansing, Michigan, and obtained a bachelor's degree at Michigan State University, graduating with honors: Magna Cum Laude & Phi Beta Kappa. She went on to head the nutrition department as supervisor, at Averill Elementary School, retiring in 1990, before moving to Palm Harbor, Florida in 1991.

Lynn was a devout Catholic, and a member of St. Casmir in Lansing, Michigan and St. Ignatius in Tarpon Springs, Florida. Equally important was her family, who she loved dearly and displayed her love constantly. She was a huge sports fan- the Tampa Bay Rays, Notre Dame & Michigan State; her favorite athlete being Patrick Mahomes. Lynn was an animal lover more than anything, her dog Bubbles was a close member of the family, and she looked forward to feeding her backyard squirrels daily.
