Mr. Amos Lynch was a giant of journalism, a crusader for civil rights and social justice, and simply a gentleman. It was a privilege to have known and worked for Mr. Lynch. He was the Godfather of Black Media and he will never be replaced.

God has called a good man home. Go in peace, Mr. Lynch.

RIP my dear friend.
