Lynda, who works as Senior Vice President, Financial Advisor, Branch Manager in Great Falls, Montana, has focused her efforts over the years on making a difference for local students, families, and the Great Falls community. She has been a board member of the Great Falls Chamber of Commerce since 2020 and is currently serving as Board Chair through 2026. Recently, the organization lost its CEO/President and Director of Development within weeks; during the six-month search for a new CEO, Lynda stepped in to provide leadership, direction, and encouragement directly to the organization and staff during a time of great need. Her efforts “literally kept the doors open and the organization afloat.”
Nominators also note that Morin takes hands-on involvement to the next level with her support of students in Great Falls, particularly at CM Russell High School. She has never said “no” to a student
who has asked for a sponsorship. She leads the annual Great Falls Public School foundation raffle competition between the two high schools and created the Carl Tucker Memorial Scholarship for student athletes. Lynda’s support extends beyond the financial as well: she serves as an informal counselor to students, particularly those who may not have ideal home support systems, emphasizing the importance of hard work, good choices, and education.
In recognition of her decades of support to CM Russell High School, Lynda was honored with an induction into their Legends Hall of Fame.
Lynda is locally famous for her homemade cookies, and since 2009, has baked an estimated 40,000 cookies, with many going to the football and basketball teams for fundraising. They’ve also been known to spark some serious bidding wars in some of D.A. Davidson’s charitable silent auctions.
We applaud Lynda’s work and her commitment to making the world a better place.
