Lynn Mary Tilkens Lazzari

With heavy hearts and immense pride, we announce the passing of Lynn Lazzari, a woman whose life was a testament to strength, dignity, and compassion. She died peacefully, embraced by the love of her family, after facing cancer with resiliency and courage over many years.

Lynn lived with intention and integrity. She met each challenge with power and grace. She defied expectations, challenged norms, and carried others with her, always lifting while climbing. She is a mother, a wife, a Nonna, a sister, an aunt, and a friend. She taught her children and grandchildren that strength often shows up as everyday bravery and kind actions for people you encounter.

Lynn was a cheerleader for all she met, whether it be a grandchild that needed a pep talk or a fellow cancer patient that could use encouragement and prayer, she would instantly become their biggest fan.

She is survived by her husband of 48 years, Stephen; her children: Sarah, Andrew (Shrenka), and Stephanie (Amanda); her beloved grandchildren: Breianna, Hendrix, Andrew, Lilliana, and Lucca; her brother Bruce (Susie) Tilkens; and countless family and dear friends she made along her journey.

Rest in Power, Mom. We will carry you forward.

Her family will continue to honor her by living kindly, bravely, and full of love. A visitation will be held at Prince of Peace Church, located at 3425 Willow Road in Green Bay, Saturday July 19, from 9-11 a.m. A Mass of Christian Burial will follow at 11 a.m. 

To view the livestream of the Mass, please visit the Prince of Peace Catholic Community Facebook page (popgb54311) at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, July 19.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
