I’ve been friends with Brian for more than 35 years, we met because we were musicians and we became friends because we had love of all the rest the things in life, he was truly a good man and a good friend for a lot of years. I will miss our times having  lunches and fishing whenever we could get away, not many people knew how good he was as a sound engineer, he never gave himself enough   credit how good he was , I feel fortunate I got meet his father a few times and his mother I use to have great conversation when I’d stop by the house( what a sweet lady). I will truly miss this man, his positivity, his drive, and his strive for excellence, This good Irish  boy was taken from us way too soon, I will be looking forward to seeing you again  on the other side My Brother Brian,,,,. Sincerely. Bobby Dean

I have to thank Brian for giving me the opportunity to do one of my first real vocal sessions in a real studio. I was 13 years old (1983) and I ditched school that day to be there. To this day, that recording  of “Say That You’ll Be Mine” is one of my most prized & special possessions.

Dear Brian,
     When I received the heartbreaking news that you had passed at 58 years young, I asked for a sign that you are still with us. That your beautiful, intelligent, talented, creative and hysterically funny soul still lives on. 
     I woke up the next day to a sweet Facebook  picture memory on my phone of the time you generously sent Keyshia and me to the Mission Inn for a Mother’s Day spa day…. But you already knew that, didn’t you? You genius! Thank you for the signs and memories…please keep them coming! 
     I know your path in this life wasn’t always an easy one, but you channeled that into living life to the fullest and bringing joy to others.  You gifted us your light, love and infectious laughter! Everyone is better for having been touched by you. 
     You went above and beyond for Zack, and for that I am eternally grateful. Ben and Carissa loved their little turtles, Sven and Zen.  And we all loved your pot roast and avocados!! I’ve never met a person as unselfishly dedicated to family and friends as you. 
     Your memorial service is tomorrow, and it just feels unfathomable that I won’t be able to give you a hug goodbye.

Revel in the peace, joy and love of the Infinite Divine, Dear Friend. Welcome home, (say hello to your mom, dad and brother for me ;)  We will miss you around here. 

Until we all meet again,
Michelle 


My Uncle Brian will be missed tremendously. I can still remember going to his house as a child and playing with his dog, Ruby.  He was always so funny and did the best impressions of people. I will always remember him as a happy go lucky and very tall Uncle. Rest in peace and give everyone a big hug when you get to those white gates. No more pain or suffering in this crazy world. Enjoy a cold beer and an eternity of fishing in the Sierras with your Dad and brother. Love you Uncle Brian, 
Jennifer French 

My name is Kelli McCoy-West. Brian was a good friend of mine, may he rest in eternal peace.  My favorite memory of Brian was when we all as friends went on a Cruise together. Some of us girls found him on the top deck on a lounge chair late at night and we asked why he was up there sleeping? And he promptly responded..."Why did I sign up for this last minute? My room is unacceptable!!" We all started giggling as we know that Brian loved to travel with very nice accommodations! He was one classy fellow!

Dear Lynch family,
We loved Brian dearly and miss him very much. Please know that we are with you in spirit and are thinking of you all. 

Brian always had such kind and heartfelt words for us. My mom (Paula) and I have stayed in touch with him over the years and he genuinely cared about us. 

At Randy (my brother) and Joanne's wedding, Brian was there and I was hanging out with him. He was the most handsome guy there, and people didn't realize we were cousins. One person asked if he was my boyfriend and I gushed with pride...well no, but he is truly one of the best people I know is what I was thinking. I likely just replied "no, we're cousins!" and laughed. But I truly loved him, and I know he reciprocated that love for us too. 

Brian and our Randy are in heaven now, fishing and sharing great tales of their adventures together! They both passed on too young, too soon, too quickly for us. I know that neither of them would want us  to be sad, they would want us to carry on and be happy. So we will try to do that, as difficult as it is. Every time I think of Brian, I smile with pride and remember the joy he brought to our lives. 

With love always, 
Trina (Lynch) Romero and Paula Lynch

Brian “ trout  master”  Lynch you will be so missed by many many friends and family.   Brian came to visit Margie and I in Bend, so of course we went fishing at East Lake.  After a few hours I had a hit and started to real in the big one.  As Brian was attempting to net the big brown the hook came out and the fish started to escape.  Brian was in the water and tried grab the slippery brown but failed.   We had hours of laughing about the big one that got away.   He loved fishing and talked a lot about the great Lynch family that he loved so much.  I can just imagine Brian, Randy and all the family fishing in Heaven….  God bless you Brian, I love you.

Cuz Brian you will alway be in our hearts.  I will treasure our text message between  Al, Trina and the long winded messages from you.  The dinner we shared when daddy passed you where always available. Love you

So very sorry to hear of Brian’s passing. Brian and I were 1st grade sweethearts. He would walk me home from school. Well to the end of the street anyway. He used to tell me he was going to be an Army soldier and we were going to get married. Our teacher used to give us the same color M&M’s when she passed out candy for rewards. We always stayed friends not close but friends. We caught up at our 20 year reunion. It’s was great to see him again. Still super sweet and a great guy. We are about to have a 40 year reunion. He will be greatly missed. I was looking forward to catching up again.  RIP Brian. :( Shirley Glenn
