Kenneth Dean Lynn, 60, of Frankstown Township, Pennsylvania, was shot and killed in the driveway of his rural Hollidaysburg home on December 21, 2012. Born March 22, 1952, in Roaring Spring, Blair County, he had married Rose M. Hoffner on May 22, 1973, at Zion Lutheran Church and was described as a kind, loving family man.

Kenneth’s death was one of three fatalities in a violent rampage carried out that day by a neighbor, 44-year-old Jeffrey Lee Michael. Michael also killed Kenneth’s son-in-law, William Rhodes Jr., 38, who died when Michael intentionally rammed his pickup into Rhodes’ vehicle, and Kimberly Scott, 58, who was killed while decorating a church hall for a children’s Christmas party. Michael engaged state troopers in a gunfight and was killed by police; the district attorney later ruled his death a justifiable homicide. Authorities had not released a motive and said it was unclear whether Michael knew Kimberly Scott.
