President led acclaimed campaigns

Lynne M. Doll, a Glendale resident and president of The Rogers Group, died Aug. 3 of a stroke at Glendale Adventist Medical Center. She battled cancer for three years and was in remission at the time of her death. She was 48.

For more than 25 years, Doll was instrumental in expanding the breadth of The Rogers Group’s expertise and leading a series of high-profile and award-winning campaigns for major corporations, brands and government agencies, according to a statement released by a spokeswoman for the agency.

Doll was recognized with several awards, including “P.R. Professional of the Year” by the Public Relations Society of America’s Los Angeles chapter; Los Angeles Business Journal’s “Women Who Make A Difference,” and the “Distinguished Alumni Award” from Cal State Northridge.

Doll also served on the Boards of Directors for Planned Parenthood Los Angeles and The DAISY Foundation. She previously served on the national and regional boards for the National Conference for Community and Justice, the Los Angeles Fire Department Community Advisory Committee and the Advisory Council for the president of Cal State Northridge.

Born and raised in Glendale, Doll is survived by her husband, David Lans, her 13-year-old daughter, Natalie, her mother, Carol Doll, and three sisters.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Lynne M. Doll to Planned Parenthood Los Angeles and/or The DAISY Foundation.

Services will be held at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale at 2:30 p.m. on Aug. 13.
