Lynn Earl Sconyers is our Beacon karaoke host and bingo caller. Born in South Haven Michigan, Lynn has one sister who lives in Atlanta named Nedra. Lynn traveled to Washington in 1997 and has been here ever since. After hearing about the Beacon Senior Center 10 years ago from his friend Hattie Crisp, Lynn started coming regularly. You can usually find Lynn playing cards or singing karaoke. His favorite music is blues. The song he loves the most is “Take me to the river” by Al Green.
Lynn says his favorite memory at the Beacon is of our fashion show. Lynn is very laid back with an eye for fashion and a real talent for entertainment.
We thank Lynn for bringing music into our center and never leaving us with a dull moment.

Grandma’s Christmas Strategy One Christmas, a mother decided she
was no longer going to remind her children to send thank you notes.
Consequently, the kids’ grandmother never received any thanks for the
Christmas checks she sent to the children.
The following Christmas, all the children stopped by grandma’s in person
to thank her for their checks. When asked
by a friend what caused this change in behavior, the grandmother replied,
“Simple, this year I didn’t sign the checks.”
Inspirational Thought:
Sometimes our presence, is a better gift than a present. –C. Ivan Johnson
