  1. So sorry to the family for your loss. My memories of Mary Lynn are from younger days of carefree summer vacation days on the shore in Wildwood Crest with cousins including Marylynn, Grandparents, aunts and uncles playing in the sand and water and just making great memories. We made the trip from Illinois every summer and Uncle Allan and Aunt Darlene would always come with the kids while we were there. My father, John Ketterer, was Allan’s brother.
