Cochran - Robert Keefe Lynn, age 64, passed away Tuesday, July 15, 2025, at his residence.

He is preceded in death by his mother Elnita Keefe Lynn and father Robert E. Lynn. In a family full of Roberts, he was known affectionately as "Red Bob" for the flaming red hair he had in childhood. He is survived by his daughter Elisabeth Lynn.

Mr. Lynn was proud of doing 30 years of work before his retirement. Although he spent the majority of his career as a med lab tech, he was most proud of his military service as an airplane mechanic in the United States Air Force.

While he enjoyed traveling during his time in the military (especially to Germany), Mr. Lynn called Georgia his home. He was a lifelong University of Georgia football fan, and he appreciated the local wildlife. One of his favorite hobbies was dove hunting, and he could spend hours watching birds flying by or just "passing time" sitting on a telephone line.

Mr. Lynn will be buried next to his mother in Nashville, Georgia on Saturday, July 19, 2025. A private service will be held at a later date.
