Lynne VonEsch passed away peacefully after a battle with Dementia with her family by her side.

Lynne was born on March 11, 1041. Lynne is survived by her daughter Carole Horvath (VonEsch), Dillon CO, granddaughter Stephanie Horvath, her son-in-law Tibor Horvath, and many relatives and close friends Sarah, Charlie, Katie, Gordan, Jeffery Van Auken, Gloucester MA, Linda, Jim, and Sarah VonEsch, Ed, Pat, Emily, Jason Rantanen, John, Teri, Jay, Matt, Chris, and Missy VonEsch, Clara Galante and the Crazy Clan, The Richardsons, and The Bumps Families. Lynne's husband George and older daughter Robin passed prior to Lynne.

Lynne met George while they were in college. They both got teaching jobs in Smithtown New York. Lynne taught 2nd grade until she had her first daughter Robin, 2 years later she had her second daughter Carole. They all moved to Woodstock Vermont in 1972, then up to Hartland Hill. George began teaching at The Woodstock Union High School. Lynne taught preschool in Barnard, Vermont. Lynne always had the 5-year plan and quickly began it, increasing her education to become The Special Education Coordinator for Windsor Southeast District in Windsor Vermont. It wasn't long before she became Special Service Director for the District and filling in as Superintendent a number of times.

After George passed away, Lynne decided as hard as it was, she needed to continue on with life and live it to the fullest.  Travel became one of them. Lynne took a year sabbatical to see how Large Corporations interrogated special needs people in their businesses and traveled in her little RV across the US with her cat Lucy. Later, Lynne began to travel the world; heading to Russia China, Israel, and Australia. After traveling for a while, she realized she needed a home base, taking up her residency at The Saint Lawrence Seaway in Alexandria Bay playing Mahjong and golf weekly with her friends for the summers and then heading to Kissimmee Florida for the winters. Lynne still had the itch for doing something, and continued camping with various camping groups in her conversion van with her dog Marnie. She was always up for an adventure! It was never a dull moment with Lynne! She had a contagious smile that always welcomed others into her life. Lynne was full of life and an inspiration to others! She shared wonderful stories of her adventures and knowledge.
