Martin Lynch Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Apr. 4 to Apr. 9, 2023.
Martin J Lynch II, age 82 passed away peacefully on April 2, 2023 surrounded by his loving family. Martin (Marty) born January 29, 1941 had a great wit and a deep passion for his family. His family and dog were always his top priority. Martin made many trips to Ireland which came up in almost every conversation. Ireland was truly a happy place for him. Martin left behind the love of his life, wife Sharon (Sherry) Swanstrom, 1 son Martin J Lynch III (Jane) and 5 daughters Maureen Aune (Denis Wolfe) Shannon Palmen (Dennis Schutz) Paula Barron (Chad Jellum) Kathleen Sveiven (Robert) Kelly Tumlin (Willis) and many grandchildren, great-grandchildren and his four-legged-companion Finnegan; many other relatives and friends. A private gathering will be held at a later date.

I just found out about cousin Marty. I am so sorry. Always got a kick out of him and his sense of humor. My condolences to the beautiful Sherry, kids and grandkids.

All of the memories of Mr. Lynch. From buying goats and keeping them in the dog kennel on Goodrich, buying two horses and taking us into town at the cabin on his Surrey. Eating flowers from the vase at the Dalles house. Making me carry his beer in his satchel to see Star Wars. I'm sure he just wanted to get my reaction as I was "churchy" at that time. Father to my longest friend Kitty. So sorry Kitten. Love you and your amazing Irish clan. Peace and comfort to you all.
