I met Lynn at the CMA fest she was just the sweetest person you ever met she always had a smile on her face and she gave me and signed picture and told me thank you for loving my music

Lynn's hugely successful career covered decades. I believe her very best work were her earliest traditional country recordings released in the 1960's for Chart Records, especially the ballads. Listen to "In Person", " Tear By Tear" and "Its' Only Lonely Me" and you'll know what I mean. Lynn, along with he mother and father were pure genius. Thank you for the joy you brought to millions people through out the world. RIP !!!

My mom and I went on a Country Cruise in 1990. I met Lynn Anderson, got her autograph, and picture. My mom at that time had cancer and wanted to go a cruise before she passed away. So I granted her wish with this wonderful cruise. Thank you for being so sweet & kind to us.

I was actually shocked to find out that
Lynn had died. I had the wonderful honor
of meeting her, in person, at a show that
she put on a Western Oregon University in
Monmouth, Oregon about 6 years ago. I took
along my 45rpm copy of " Rose Garden " with
the hopes of getting her to sign it. After
the show I waited outside the stage door for her to come out. To my great surprise,
she came out the door and looked right at
me. I asked her if she would sign my copy
of " Rose Garden " and she did---with my
pen.She was very gracious and even gave
me a hug! ( My wife wasn't to thrilled
about that! But I will remember that mom-
ent forever!! She will be very much
missed. Ken Sauer

I had the great honor of meeting Lynn in Las Vegas several years ago, She impressed me so much with her love and laughter.. and of course put on a wonderful show! She put her arms around me and gave me a big kiss on the cheek. My pictures from that day are a special treasure to me and I will always think the world of her. I am so sad and was hoping to see her again. Maybe I will!! Blessings to her family.

It is through the Western Music Association that a long lasting friendship with the Anderson family has developed.

Lynn had a beautiful, unique voice that could uplift anyone. She was beautiful inside and out, a sweet, kind person with a great sense of humor. Lynn, thank you for all of the many interviews you did with me when I wrote articles featuring you for Country Weekly and other magazines. Most of all, thank you for your friendship for the past 23 years. I'll miss you! All my sympathy and love to Casey, Mentor, Lisa, Gray, Melissa, and Michael.

For Lynn's family:
I cried when I saw this news last week. And at a gathering of mutual friends, we held a minute of silence for her that night. I am so privileged to have known the real Lynn - not the famous Lynn. She made me hamburgers and endame one night when we were discussing a book together, and my daughter remembers her coming to one of her softball games in Taos. May God Bless her and keep her as she trudges the road to happy destiny. Light and Love to you all. Jill

A great singer and performer who has left us much too early. I remember her well on the Lawrence Welk show and her ("I Never Promised You a) Rose Garden" is one of my all-time favorites. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her, but she won't be forgotten. She had a great smile and bubbly personality that will live on along with her music. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time. Hold tight to all the great memories she left with you.
