Lynn Manwar was, by all accounts, a cancer conqueror to the very end. She passed away September 28, 2015

Lyn battled the disease nearly half her life, but friends and family members of the 42-year-old Rotarian said Manwar never once let cancer define her, nor her 18-year struggle with the disease hold her back from achieving anything she set her mind to.
