Carolyn Bartnicki

My darling bride Lynn Bartnicki entered into heaven on Friday 6/22 to spend eternity with Our Lord Jesus. After a 5 year battle with metastatic breast cancer she passed comfortable at home with her husband at her side while he was praying the Rosary with her. There has never been a more courageous woman. She ran many  fundraising events to help support Metaviors. During her long illness she continued to work tirelessly to help and support other women that were fighting this same disease that were less fortunate then herself. She was happily married for 33 years to her loving husband Gary. Lynn loved to travel and had more vacations then anyone could even count. She brought joy to every person she met and loved spending time with all of her family and friends. The one word that everyone used to describe Lynn was kindness. She had the warmest heart that anyone could ever imagine and once she made a friend they were friends for life. Even though she was very ill these last 5 plus years, her time spent living among so many friends in her community in Manahawkin were some of the happiest times of her life. She is survived by her most loving husband Gary,

4 sisters, 5 brothers and too many nieces and nephews to even count and of course her kindred spirit.

PLEASE in lieu of flowers make a donation to Metavivor at www.metavivor.org

That is what Lynn would want.
