Lynn Eleveld (née Keister), 78, left peacefully on February 13, 2018. She was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, graduated from East Grand Rapids High School, and earned both a Bachelor's and Master's degree from Michigan State University. She married Robert Eleveld in 1961 and worked as a high school English teacher and later as a social worker for youth. She is survived by her son and daughter, Rob and Kerry, her sisters, Betsy and Barbie, and her three grandchildren Bobby, John, and Kate.
For many years, Lynn lived with mental illness and was lovingly cared for by the Hope Network family. Lynn was sweet, kind, elegant, a little mischievous, very witty, and had a great sense of humor throughout life. She will be missed dearly.
