Jim graduated from Bishop Egan High School in 1966 and was employed by US Steel Fairless Works in the Sheet and Tin Division for 33 years until illness forced him to retire in 2001.

Jim, the ultimate “foodie” enjoyed fishing, hosting family picnics, vacationing at the beach in North Carolina, and trips to Atlantic City. Most of all, he enjoyed family and friends.

He is also survived by his brothers Larry Lynch (Geraldine) and Dennis Lynch (Sandra) in addition to many cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
