Wrong kind of stoned for Sandy Bee Lynn

Retired BJ librarian Sandy Bee Lynn had surgery at Akron General Hospital to remove two kidney stones. A larger one will be removed later.

This must have been a piece of cake compared to the 2010 day when a drunk driver crossed a double yellow line and hit Sandy’s car head-on. 

The punk went to the Ohio Penitentiary. But Sandy had to deal with intestinal surgery, a plate with 6 screws in her busted left hand, 5 broken bones in her spine and a broken right foot.

It was BJ Alums founder Harry Liggett’s article about the collission in this blog that led her long-ago North Hill friend, Marsha Sue, to a reunion. Marsha saw the article and began her hunt for Sandy Bee. They reunited at the New Horizons Band in Cuyahoga Falls where Sandy Bee plays viola.

Sandy is married to Glenn Lynn. After the BJ, Sandy worked at Orrville and Wadsworth public libraries and lives in Doylestown. Sandy and Glenn both perform with the New Horizons Band in Cuyahoga Falls.

Uniform, medals and other items worn by her father, Henry Fuller, are on display at the Military Aviation Preservation Society (MAPS) Museum. 

Pop was a paratrooper with the 101st Airborne Division (the famous Screaming Eagle) that jumped over Normandy on D-Day to defeat Nazi Germany. 

The uniform was on display in France for more than a year. The French haven’t forgotten how the Yanks came to their rescue in World War II.

The New Horizons Band, directed by Jim Adkins, performed patriotic music at the dedication ceremony for Sandy’s dad. Glenn was among the band performers.

Henry and Arline Mitchell Fuller had three children: Sandy, Ron and Timothy.
