Gwynne filled the lives of her family and friends with love, laughter, and wisdom. She was a ray of sunshine and spread her light wherever she went.

She had a love for boating, dancing, but her family most of all. Her favorite place was the Isles of Shoals, where she’d spend time on her boat, “Seanote” with her husband, Al. She was a member of the Hampton River Boat Club where she made many friendships.

Gwynne also had a passion for ballroom dancing. She was the happiest when she was dazzling on stage with Theo Martinez, her dance instructor and friend.

She was also a member of the American Legion Henry J. Sweeney Post #2 in Manchester and Kappa Delta Phi- NAS (formerly Kappa Sigma Phi), from her alma mater Plymouth State University.

Supporting cancer research was something near and dear to her heart. Gwynne was very active in the Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society.

Her sisters, Gayle Llewellyn, and Lori Yob (Steven); brothers Peter Llewellyn (Carol) and David Llewellyn.
