Christopher John Lynch, age 50, a resident of Ash Street Group Home in Hopkinton and a former longtime resident of Framingham, entered into peace, Sunday January 22, 2012 at the Metrowest Medical Center, Framingham, with family by his side. Born in Framingham, he was the son of Gunvor "Gunny" (Bergishagen) Lynch of Framingham and the late John A. Lynch who died in 2009.

He loved his family, walks on Humarock Beach, drawing, listening to records, his bat and ball, ice cream and birthdays. With his laughter and sense of humor, he filled many lives with joy, and will be deeply missed by his family, and the many wonderful people who have cared for him through the years. In addition to his mother, Christopher is survived by his siblings Thomas J. Lynch and his wife Barbara of VA, Christina Ronder and her husband Richard of Newbury, Ellen Lynch of Wakefield, Karen Lynch and her husband Dana of WA, Kathy Holmes and her husband Jon of KY, Molly St. John and her husband Brian of Hull.
