James Lynch

James D. Lynch (Jim), 52, passed away Sunday, July 17, 2016, after an eight month struggle with cancer. He is survived by his wife Bridget; daughters Brittany Shannon and Allison Christine; parents Jack and Jane Lynch; brother John Lynch (Valerie); niece Sarah Jane; nephew Michael; mother-in-law Peggy Brown, and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. After graduating from Georgia State University, Jim achieved his dream career with Microsoft. Jim was a Senior Consultant where he earned several awards for excellence in his 12 years of service. He was highly respected by his peers and corporate customers for his nearly unparalleled knowledge of System Center Configuration Manager. He loved time with his family, including equestrian competitions with Brittany and soccer matches with Allison. Leisure time was spent traveling with Bridget whenever possible. Playing his guitar gave him much pleasure as he loved all things Springsteen! In his efforts to help others, each year he contributed a college scholarship to the Walton County Christian Learning Center for a Walnut Grove High School CLC student. Through his legacy this donation will continue through the family. A memorial service will be held on Thursday, July 21 at 11 o’clock at Patterson’s Spring Hill with a reception following the service.
