Lynn Marie Fons found eternal peace in the loving arms of God May 30, age 64 years. Beloved mother of Christina Lynn Fons, devoted daughter of Leonard and Patricia, loving sister of Leonard Joseph Fons, she is also survived and will be dearly missed by many loving cousins and friends.
Lynn was born in Wisconsin and moved to New Jersey with her family as a young child. She lived in Little Silver and attended Red Bank Catholic. Lynn attended Monmouth College and started her career in the airline industry which allowed her to travel around the world, including Great Britain, Spain, France and Morocco. She worked for Delta Airlines at their home office in New York City for 10 years, retiring in 1987. She returned to Wisconsin with her family and continued in the airline industry working for Midwest Airlines.
Lynn moved back to the Jersey Shore to work a job she always loved at Monmouth Park Racetrack. Her many interests included the thoroughbred racing world, gardening, taking care of animals, including her cat Junior and dog Alydar, and traveling from coast to coast with her daughter.
Visitation was held June 7 at Divine Mercy Catholic Church, South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with a Mass of Christian Burial. Interment followed at Holy Sepulcher Cemetery.
A memorial for Lynn will take place Aug. 1 at 7 p.m. at The Marina at Oceanport.
