Lynn grew up in Lindsay and graduated from Lindsay High School in 1968. She attended East Central University for three years where she met Keith Wayne Heck. They were married on September 6, 1969.

Lynn worked outside the home while Keith was finishing Law School, then she stayed home and raised her two girls, Kerry and Kacey.
