It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of the Matriarch of Banks Pools for 40+ years, Lynn Banks. Lynn Diane Bisbee Banks October 31, 1955 — February 27, 2025 Overland Park, KS Lynn Diane Bisbee Banks, born October 31, 1955, to Lois Thorne and Robert Bisbee, passed away on February 27, 2025, after a two year battle with pancreatic cancer. Lynn was a member of Bethany Lutheran Church and a devout Christian. Lynn was intelligent and fiercely independent. She was beautiful, curious, and unique. She was nurturing. There was no one in the world who was or is any longer her. Lynn was Tri-State Swimming Champion and record holder for the butterfly, freestyle, and relay events. She represented Old Pike Country Club and YMCA North and went 4 years of club swimming without losing a race. She participated in the Junior Olympics twice. Lynn attended North Kansas City High School and graduated in 1974. Beyond swimming, she was a Hornet Cheerleader and honor roll student. She earned a National Merit Scholarship and attended the University of Missouri in Columbia, where she pledged Kappa Alpha Theta. She later transferred to Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, to begin her sophomore year. She graduated in 1978 with a major in economics and a minor in language. Following her graduation, Lynn embarked on a year long backpacking trip across Europe. Her travels included working as a nanny and skiing in Val D’Isere, performing traditional grape stomping while working at a vineyard, and visiting Soviet Russia. She tracked down a Peugeot for her father to import to the United States, later becoming her own. Upon her return, she traveled the United States as a representative for StairGlide. On December 8th, 1980, she married the love of her life, Roger Banks and created a loving family. With her first child at age 27 and her last at age 43, she was a devoted mother to Adrienne (1982), Marshal (1985), Hoyt (1987), Greer (1995), and Thorne (1999). She is the proud grandmother of Violet, Charles, Wallace, Mya, Abbie, Nora, Hazel, Warner, and Sloane. For over 40 years, Lynn served as the Chief Financial Officer and secretary of Banks Pool and Spa.

We fired the AI running our social media. Long overdue. Back to organic social media posting! #poolandspa #backyardoasis #travertinepatio

It has been a very mild and busy winter! A lot of folks ask "What does a pool company do in Kansas during the harsh winter?" The answer is Dig, baby, Dig. This is the second of four pools we will dig this January. #neverstopgrinding #poolspacombo #outdoorliving #excavatorsongblippi #kcpools

Over 250 tons of gravel in three hours! Telebelt on the job!

Could you imagine one of these being your backyard? Natural style pools are still very popular and provide beautiful opportunities for cascading waterfalls set in scenic landscaping. #kansascitysfinest #kcpools #freeformpool #poolandspa

Beautiful freeform project built with @newleafland. More pics to come! #kansascitysfinest #outdoorlivingspace #poolspa #sunpool #naturalpool

This backyard resort features a natural waterfall, freeform shape, sunledge and swim up bar. Surrounding decking includes a storage area, outdoor kitchen and travertine walkout basement/sunken firepit area that marries to swim up bar. Fun fact: we custom made the bar, storage and outdoor kitchen countertops out of giant Weston cream slabs to match stone wall veneer and waterfall! #kcpools #backyardoasis

Beautiful drone shot taken by client. Proper use of lighting can really make the backyard come alive at night! #kcpools

Another one bites the dust! We receive a lot of questions about how the interior plaster finish of the pool is applied. Here is a short video of the initial scratch coat of plaster. The color of this plaster will create a deep blue water similar to SoCal Pacific ocean. #kcpools #pacifictide #midnightrafael

Obligatory is it pool season yet post!!! Beautiful pool spa combo with sunledge and boulder water feature. #kcpools #poolspacombo #outdoorliving #allnatural

Check out some of these beautiful drone shots taken by the homeowner! We are very thankful for the opportunity to build such a sprawling and detail rich project. #kcpools #poolspacombo #poolhouse #grottopool #thatsalotofpool

This vanishing edge pool has quite the sheer water feature! The smooth-as-glass sheet of water is 16' wide and will have fire/water bowls set on the flanking columns. #kcpools #infinityedge #outdoorliving #kansascitysfinestbackyards

A pool/spa combo allows for wonderful water feature opportunities. This glass tile veneered spa has a traditional spillway cascading to the pool below. #poolspacombo #kcpools #glassmosaic #outdoorliving

Not a bad vantage point from the top of the grotto! #outdoorliving #kcpools #thatsabigpool #gochiefs

First of many pics to come of this sprawling and detail rich backyard paradise. From grotto to spa the pool measures nearly 70'! #kcpools #outdoorliving #poolhouse #sunpool

TGIF after pouring a 2900 square foot deck in the middle of an engineered pit. Fun fact: this pool took 1.5 weeks to dig the hole out of solid bedrock and broke three rock breaker excavators in the process! #outdoorliving #kcpools #engineeredbackyard #poolinapit

This fireplace and patio features lovely stonework, uplighting and firebowls. The brick patio is in 90° herring bone pattern with travertine trim. #outdoorfireplace #outdoorliving #kcpools

Take a plunge into the deep-end of this beauty featuring a swim-out grotto, sun pool, firepit and sitting bench, and large slide flanked by natural firebowls. #cannonball #pencil #outdoorliving #kcpools

So delighted to share this wonderful project that included a large home addition connected by breezeway. The outdoor kitchen and firepit area integrate cohesively with the addition and offer a beautiful perspective of the pool area. The cascading pools are anchored by a large swim-out grotto. #kcpools #outdoorliving #grotto #bankspools

This little piece of paradise includes a freeform pool with natural waterfall, stand alone spa with swim-up bar, and an all flagstone patio with firepit. #kcpools #horseshoespa #thatsalotofrock #backyardliving #backyardoasis

Sneak peek of on-going lazy river bridge construction! The bridge connects the pool deck to an island with sunken firepit. #kcpools #lazyriverpool

Putting the finishing touches on a gorgeously elegant and rustic pool house. From concept, to render, to reality, the structure was an absolute blast to build. More and better pics to come.

Can't wait to get pics of this project in spring! "Is there anyway to make this pool not sound like Disneyland!?" Quoted from a great customer and great guy.

Laying turf is the final step for this beauty! The coping is modern square edge travertine with a Greek key perimeter tile. #kcpools #backyardliving #swimmingpool #turfntravertine

There is no better way to relax at the end of the day than a little hydrotherapy in the spa! #kcpools #poolspacombo #webuildbackyards #minilaquintaresort
