Lynnette Jung
Aug 7, 1940 — Dec 29, 2015
Lynnette Jung-Springberg, 75, of Fort Collins, Colorado had a Cerebral Vascular Accident on December 21, 2015 and died December 29th at Pathways Hospice at McKee Medical Center.
Born August 7, 1940 in Billings, Montana, Lynnette was the daughter of Lucille and Joseph Jung. She grew up in Glasgow, MT. She received her undergraduate degree in Sociology from St. Catherine College (now University) in St. Paul, MN and later her MSW from University of Utah. She served for 21 years in the U. S. Air Force as a Clinical Social Worker and was Department Chair of Social Work at Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio, TX.
After completing overseas assignments at Osan Air Base, Korea and Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines, Lynnette married fellow Air Force officer Peter Springberg while assigned to the Air Force Base in Wichita Falls, TX.
Lynnette retired from the Air Force in 1996 as a Lt. Colonel, and following her husband's retirement, they moved to Fort Collins in 1999 (it was her turn to pick.) Here, she continued to see mental health patients up until shortly before her death. Having received advanced training in group psychotherapy, Masters & Johnson Sex Therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), she worked with victims of sexual abuse as well as veterans and others with PTSD in a pro bono capacity.
She had a passion for volunteering and helping others and also volunteered as a fashion model for a number of businesses and organizations.
Lynnette is survived by her husband, Peter; her sister, JoAnn Kline and her extended family; step-daughter, Robin Springberg Parry and her family; and numerous surrogate children and grandchildren and close friends.
A memorial Service will be held at 3:30 PM Sunday, January 3, 2016 at the Fort Collins Senior Center, 1200 Raintree Road, Fort Collins. Rabbi Hillel Katzir will officiate. Interment, with full military honors, will be held at Fort Logan National Cemetery, Denver.
