Lynda Collins McReynolds

Lynda Lou Collins McReynolds was called home Thursday, November 24, 2022 at the age of 83. Lynda was born October 16, 1939 to Lawrence and Mary Collins. She was the youngest of five children and attended school in Kerens. She attended Powell Baptist Church and was very proud to say that her father was a Deacon in the church.

Lynda was an avid bowler from the early 60's until the late 80's. She enjoyed growing house plants and planting flowers in her yard. She enjoyed playing canasta, gin rummy, dominoes and almost any board game.

Lynda worked in the Insurance Claims industry most of her life, starting as a Claims Clerical Supervisor in Houston. She earned her Insurance Adjuster's License, specializing in Workers' Compensation claims. She later moved to Dallas where she worked for Union Standard. In the early 80's she moved to San Antonio. In San Antonio, she was Secretary/Treasurer of Jack Broome & Associates, an independent claims adjusting firm.

In 2000 Lynda moved to San Angelo to be near her family. She joined Trinity Lutheran Church and worked in the church office for a short time. For the past 2 ½ years, following the on-set of dementia, she was a resident at Bronte Health and Rehab Center where she enjoyed being pampered by their caring staff.

Lynda was preceded in death by her parents, brother Willie Lee Collins, sisters and brothers-in-law Dorothy and Bill Newsom, Ruth and Edgar Coburn, Betty and Glynn Palmer and six nieces and nephews.

She is survived by her only child Leah Wortham and husband Billy, granddaughter Rebekah Jenkins and husband Cody, and step-grandson Curtis Wortham and Krista. She is also survived by nieces Sue Tudor and her husband Paul "Sandy" and Glynda Jones, nephews Walter Newsom and wife Barbara, Ronnie Palmer and wife Perla and numerous great-nieces and great-nephews.

Thank you to Bronte Health & Rehab Center for their loving care and to Gentiva Hospice. A very special thank you to the Rev. Allan Eckert for his visits during her time in Bronte.

In accordance with Lynda's wishes, her remains have been donated to Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. Coordination with TTUHSC provided by Robert Massie Funeral Home.
