Dear Lois and entire Lynch Family,
Jim and I would like to express our deepest condolences. We will never forget how supportive Ken and you were when we lost my father Elmer.
Ken has been such a special person sharing his knowledge and expressing encouragement. We have great memories through the years in Washington at  reunions, and in Thousand Oaks at concerts or at our home.
We will cherish these memories always.
Love Janine Michelle (Ramsey) and Jim Donegan

I am truly blessed to have known Kenneth at SAR and I miss his strong handshake. We would reminisce about the state of Washington, Seattle, Boeing and other common aerospace subjects. I sat beside him at a recent SAR meeting and he said he was planning to move back to the Seattle area. But now we all can be with him again someday in his heavenly place, God willing. 

Our sincere condolences to Karen, Bill, Rachel & Chas, Ryan & Vicki and all beloved relatives & friends of the Lynch family.  Judging from the photos, the world has lost a truly loving, giving and exceptional man. We wish we would have had the opportunity to get to know Ken. Sending love, hugs and our thoughts & prayers. 

Knowing Ken through the Wednesday genealogy group for over 15 years has been an honor.  Ken was a wonderful mentor in learning the proper way to research, to keep digging and backed it all up with his own findings, and examples of his research.  Of course, our group is more than just genealogy, Ken along with Lois have made going to Wednesday class interesting with stories of their travels and happenings in the local community.  I just can not express how saddened I am and how much I will miss Ken.  My condolences to Lois and his family.

Seems like I was just talking to Ken and Lois a few days ago, but it's been a few weeks since our good-bye get-together with the Hurleys. He was such a vibrant and interesting man, contributing to his communities including the genealogical! We've truly lost a respected, giving gentleman.  My sincere condolences to Lois and their family.

I admired Ken for his skills and ability to show us how he researched and determined more about the lives of his many ancestors. In the Wednesday genealogy discussion group, he shared with us the importance of finding one's "Gateway Ancestors",  how he was related to Charlemagne, effectively using Find A Grave, and many more.  

We have indeed lost a noble and much admired man.
