Our plans to say goodbye



In this photo, Jacob is unseen and watching over Lynn.  Now, Lynn is unseen.  But maybe she is watching over us.  I want to thank the many people who are helping us prepare for her services.

Here is the obituary that we are submitting to the Columbus Dispatch:

Dale Lynn Stoutenburg (née Peyton), age 32, died at her home in Powell, Ohio on Easter morning, March 31, 2013.  She was surrounded by loving family and friends.  She finally rested after a courageous year-long battle with breast cancer.  Born November 4, 1980, in Parma, Ohio, she was the oldest daughter of three.  She is survived by her husband, Joe; children, Lauren and Jacob; parents, Jerry Peyton and April (Smith) Peyton; grandmothers, Joan (Salsman) Smith and Naomi (Wiseman) Peyton; sisters, Carrie (Peyton) Hanna and Katie Peyton and loving extended family and friends too numerous to count. Graduate of The Ohio State University and The New York Institute of Photography.  She worked as a professional photographer and was a loving wife and mother.  Dale Lynn lived a life of vitality and had a gift to make people laugh.  Her far reaching exemplary influence will be felt for generations to come.
