Read MoreProfessor Lynch convinced me (at 48 YOA and on the two year program at CWSL) that I could not only graduate, but would make a great lawyer. I'll never for a moment forget him. He spoke so lovingly of his family, and I have copius Evidence notes to prove it. We were so blessed to have him with us for a little while. He would prefer us to laugh...or dance! God bless you all.

I would have never had a personally rewarding career as a Navy Judge Advocate if it were not for Prof. Lynch's support and guidance throughout my truly fine education at Cal Western. A wonderful personality and dedicated teacher and family man...Truly a giant in the legal community.

Professor Lynch loved to teach. He had an enthusiasm for his classes that was rare. It was a pleasure to be in his class. I took torts and remedies from Professor Lynch. It was hard work but enjoyable.

Bill was an incredible man. He was my favorite professor of all time. He took a California surfer under his wing in 1886 and made him into a great orator! He led me to the national moot court competition finals and the highest win California Western has ever had. He instilled discipline in me like no one ever has. He will be remembered as a great one of all time. Bill I know you are with Sally now in a good place. May your legacy live forever.
