Stardate 12303.14 (March 14, 2023): Historical Research of Renee Yvonne Bryant Lynn of the planet Earth

The ship has returned to Earth to research the life of a dedicated crew member, Renee Yvonne Bryant Lynn, of the City of Decatur in the State of Tennessee. While orbiting the planet with our deflector shields up to keep us unobserved, we find a group of what appear to be family gathering to discuss important facts. We will listen and record. Captain Out.

Supplemental: The following important data has been received: Renee was a devoted mother to her two children and loving nana to her nine grandchildren. She was the devoted daughter to her parents, and sister to her two brothers. Renee was a charter member of the American Legion Auxiliary in both the state of California and the state of Tennessee. She held multiple positions throughout her more than 20 years of service in the American Legion Auxiliary and was dedicated to the American Armed Service members who protected their country and the rights of American citizens.

Renee worked at the El Centro Regional Medical Center in California for 25 years as a Surgical Supplies Technician. Her desire to help others was always understood, and her dedication to her work was seen by all. She was greatly appreciated by the staff and patients in her ability to locate specific items sometimes “far out of reach”. Of course, she may have had interstellar assistance with some of them (LOL).

As has been noted on this planet, faith is not illogical, her faith is recorded as Baptist, and she was a member of the First Baptist Church in El Centro, California, and Ten Mile Baptist Church in Ten Mile, Tennessee. This planet is truly a better place for her countless hours devoted to mentoring children and youth leaders in the AWANA program at First Baptist Church in El Centro, California.
