Send FlowersStrivers, Like Their Parents
Whatever their achievements, the Lynch boys were products of their upbringing. The children of Irish immigrants, Sean P. Lynch and his brother Farrell P. Lynch were strivers like their parents.
"They never forgot where they were from," said their sister, Ellen Lynch. Growing up in a family of seven in a two- bedroom house ‹ "all the boys slept in the attic," she said ‹ they were a tight-knit group, and as adults with families, they often gathered in that same house, where their parents still live, for traditional Irish breakfasts.
The brothers both worked at Cantor Fitzgerald; Sean Lynch was an interest rate options broker and Farrell Lynch, who had worked there long enough to be around for the 1993 bombing, was a partner.
Farrell Lynch lived on Long Island with his wife, Eileen, and daughters Katie, 13, Meghan, 11, and Annie, 7. The couple met as sophomores in high school, and they were looking forward to their 15th anniversary this month. Farrell Lynch also looked forward to a day when he could retire and coach high school basketball, said his wife. "He wanted to get into coaching one day ‹ that was his dream. Simple, but that's what he wanted," she said.
Sean Lynch, 36, lived in Morristown, N.J., with his wife, Lori, and daughters Mary, 3, and Grace, 17 months. "He was a very thoughtful person," said his wife. "He was already saying to Mary, 'Be kind to your sister; always treat people well.' "

Farrell is one of two of my former students lost on 9/11. I taught him when he was a freshman at St Pius X. Loved playing basketball with him and others after school. What a wonderful young man. He was a life force. He is often on my mind, especially on this anniversary. Prayers for your friends and family Farrell.

My Aunt Beatrice Reilly told me at my uncle Brother Thomas Reillys funeral years ago about these two young men who were my second cousins. She introduced their mom to me. I am related to these young men and I listen to their names said on tv each year and pray for them. Please do the same.

I participated in a 9/11 tribute today and climbed the stairs to the top floor of Chase Tower in Phoenix (36 floors). After completing the challenge I selected Mr. Lynch's name from a basket of victims in rememberance. Thirteen years have passed but that tragic day will never be forgotten. RIP Mr Lynch.

I remember Farrell when he was a kid. We played for Cure of Ars in the CYO basketball league, coached by Bernie Ward. I was one of four Jewish kids who played on the team. Always remembered that Farrell was one of the more welcoming guys on the team (not all were-- under the circumstances). I was downtown on 911 and was shocked to later see his name. I hear it every year when they read off roll. I didn't know him as an adult, but I suspect he was as nice as he was as a kid in sneakers.

I am thinking about Farrell today as the anniversary of 9/11 approaches tomorrow. I lived on the same floor as him at Naz back in the 80's. Such a great guy, prayers always for those he left behind. Joanne Brown (Keoghan)
