Owner’s Thorny Path Led to Celtic Shop

Dunedin, FL – In 1996, Lynn Thorn left her job with Norfolk Southern Railroad and moved across the pond to Borehamwood, England, to marry the man she loved.

Just 18 months later she was a widow.

Thorn had a good job with T-Mobile at the time, and though she was still reeling with grief, she loved her new country and decided to stay. Eventually, she took a buyout but remained in England as a change management consultant for a myriad large corporations.

A nagging thought stayed in the back of her mind: “I kept thinking that I would love to have my own business,” Thorn said.
