Lynn Ann Kleipe, 74, of Kearny passed away on September 7, 2026. Born in Newark, she lived in Parsippany before settling in Kearny for many years.

Lynn was known for her kindness, generosity and wit. She was a deeply spiritual person who lived by the wisdom offered in Don Miguel Ruiz's book, The Four Agreements: "Be impeccable with your word. Don't take anything personally. Don't make assumptions. Always do your best."

Lynn was also a fierce defender of women and women's rights. While slight in stature, she was ready to step in if she saw a woman who needed help.

Lynn was a longtime member of the Center for Spiritual Living in North Jersey. She loved puzzles, cooking and committed her thoughts about life in her journals.

Lynn was the beloved life partner of Olga LeBron who was a steady presence throughout the years.

In the words of the poet John O'Donohue, Lynn lived her life "compassionate of heart, clear in word, gracious in awareness, courageous in thought, generous in love." She is dearly missed. 

Funeral Arrangements were private under the direction of Compassionate Cremation Services in Clifton. A celebration of Lynn's life is being planned in the near future by Olga LeBron
