Lynn Morris at SPBGMA

The Lynn Morris Band website has some photos of Lynn at last month’s SPBGMA Convention in Nashville, where she both performed with the band and accepted the 2006 Grand Masters Gold Award. This award is given to artists who have won any award from SPBGMA ten times, and Lynn has been their Female Vocalist Of The Year (Traditional) the requisite number of times.

As many of our readers may know, Lynn suffered a stroke during knee replacement surgery a few years ago, and was unable to perform for quite some time. She has been making a slow but steady recovery ever since, and her husband Marshall Wilborn has this comment posted on their site:

Lynn does indeed continue her recovery in a very positive way. Thanks so much, once again, to all of you for your good thoughts, prayers, and well wishes over these last three years. You can’t imagine how much it’s meant to us!

We look forward to seeing you at the festivals.

The site also indicates that cards and notes can be sent to Lynn at:
