Meet Your Neighbor... Lynette Jones-Baucke

Growing up in the small town of Klamath Falls, Oregon, Lynette developed an early love for learning. If she wanted answers, she went straight to the library, checking out books and teaching herself everything she could. That passion led her into a career in nursing, where she quickly recognized challenges and shortcomings within the healthcare system. Instead of accepting things as they were, Lynette continued her education, always guided by her instinct to learn more and do better.

Today, Lynette brings that same problem-solving mindset to Westbrook Village, where she is deeply involved in the community and currently serves as President of the Westbrook Village Pickleball Club. Her leadership, energy, and commitment to staying engaged make her a familiar and respected face around the Village.

This conversation is about curiosity, service, leadership, and the importance of staying connected to your community. It’s a great reminder that learning—and contributing—never stops.

Steve Merila — Host, Meet Your Neighbor
As Realtor Steve, I’ve learned that real estate is about more than houses — it’s about people, stories, and the connections that make a community feel like home. That belief inspired Meet Your Neighbor, a podcast where I sit down with the incredible residents of Westbrook Village to share their journeys, passions, and what brought them here.
Each episode is a genuine, easygoing conversation — like chatting over coffee with a friend — that reminds us how special this community truly is. My goal is simple: to help people connect, feel seen, and celebrate the amazing neighbors who make Westbrook Village one of a kind.
