LYNNE SAWYER

Board Secretary

Lynne Sawyer has  been a banker for approximately 30 years and during this time, she was blessed to marry and have a family. She has been married for 25 years to husband, Billy, and they have a beautiful daughter, now in college, named Hayley.

Ever since Lynne was young, she's always had a true passion for horses and dogs.  As life became busier through the years, she decided she no longer had the appropriate amount of time to devote to a horse, as her family traveled extensively for her daughter’s club soccer teams, and put her efforts towards her dogs. 

Because she's passionate about protecting, enhancing and saving pet’s lives and especially because she loved Susie Hitchcock-Hall’s vision for the Midland Humane Coalition, she joined MHC to assist our community in saving adoptable cats and dogs from euthanasia.  

Currently, her family has four dogs -- with two of them being rescues.  Her favorite rescue from MHC is Gunner, a Border Collie mix.  Gunner has been in the Sawyer home for approximately 9 years and is a true blessing!   

When my daughter and I first saw Gunner in PetSmart,  we knew he was special and I immediately fell in love with him!  Gunner is definitely a “water baby.”  He floats in our pool, lounging in his very own river float.  In and about the house, he follows me around and enjoys every moment of his life with us while enhancing ours.  ​
