Lynn was born in Newton, the daughter of the late Harold C. and May E. (McDonald) Vlass.

She graduated from Marlborough High, Class of '67, and worked as a Human Resources Manager for over 30 years.

Lynn is survived by her husband of 25 years, Clifford L. Wilson of Rowley, MA, her four sons, Jason Puri and his wife Melissa of Milford, Matthew Puri of N.

Lynn was one of the most caring and selfless people, as anyone who knew her would agree.  Lynn was totally committed to her family, and proudly referred to her thirteen grandchildren as "Mammie's grandbabies".  Lynn's joy in life was spending time with her family and longtime friends.  Her love, kindness, and generosity will be missed forever.
