Lynda was born Sept. 9, 1954 in Youngstown, a daughter of the late Karl E. and Anna Cartwright Armbrecht. She graduated from Boardman High School in 1972, and was a lifelong resident of the Mahoning Valley.

Lynda started working for her family business, Armbrecht Motor Truck Sales in Youngstown, where, for 10 years, she handled the warranties at the dealership.

She attended Westminster Presbyterian Church in Boardman.

In her free time, Lynda enjoyed outdoor activities, boating, fishing, swimming and camping. One of her favorite places to vacation was with her family to Bobcaygeon, Ontario. When she had the opportunity, she liked to travel to Florida, Las Vegas and to visit her great-nieces in South Carolina.
