Born July 26, 1942, Lyndal enjoyed a life full of family, friends, and animals. After attending Wilber High School, Lyndal went on to Washington State University where she pledged Chi Omega and made lifelong friends. After graduating in 1964 with a bachelor’s degree in fine arts, Lyndal married and had 2 sons, Michael and David Bobbett.
