Scholarship Contest


The C.S. Brown Group, LLC honors the memory of Lynette Marie Crayton Barnett, who was a devoted wife, mother, aunt, grandmother, and friend. Her life’s work was in the areas of social work and special education, but her love for family was her greatest joy. As a mother, she was instrumental in providing guidance and direction to her children, nephews, and grandchildren. Her influence will be remembered, and she will always be considered our first coach.
