Paul Lynch Obituary

Paul Cornelius Lynch Jr., passed away peacefully on Tuesday morning, July 27th at Lake Taylor Transitional Hospital. Paul was a Norfolk native who began his professional career as a teacher, before co-founding Michael's Coffee Service, serving the Tidewater area for nearly two decades.

He is survived by two sons Ben and Andrew, who were the proudest accomplishments of his life, in addition to his six grandchildren; Ben Jr, Mia, Gio, Drew, Zoey and Grayson. They all will miss him so much. Paul was the life of the party and found friends wherever he went. That network of friends grew tremendously over the last 20 years as he traveled and spent time with his dear Vicky Pochkowski, for whom he cared so much. Paul lived life the way he wanted, impacted so many, and if you knew him, you loved him.

Come by The Harbor Inn on Saturday, July 31st around 5pm to have a shot of Kessler's for Paul. If they don't have Kessler's have a Canadian Mist. Put one down for Paul!

Paul's ashes will be spread in the Chesapeake Bay per his wishes. He wanted us to think of him when we look out at the water.

To the Lynch Family,
Well, tomorrow would make 2 years since your Dad left us, but it seems like yesterday. Things will happen in the neighborhood and we always say what we thought he would have said, which would have been funny. He was a special ole feller who will never be forgotten.

Well, another year has passed since we last saw Paul. We have missed seeing him sitting outside, speaking to all his neighbors as they walked by. He really will never be forgotten

Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. Paul was such a wonderful, funny and caring man. I have so many cherished memories of him. A friend reminded me yesterday of the time he showed up at my beach house at 8am with doughnuts and a bottle of fireball. What a character! He will be truly missed.

Ben, Andy, and Family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this sad time. He was such a nice neighbor. None of us thought when he left home that day that he wouldn't be coming back. I can still see him sitting out in his yard feeding the squirrels and waving to all the neighbors walking by. We are all going to miss him.
