RIP Eileen Lynch 6/14/2020 - Greg - 06-16-2020
Eileen was my father's brother's wife. She was the last Aunt I had. She was the rock of the Massachusetts's Lynch clan. And that clan is quite big and growing. I'm hazy on the details but I believe she was one of eight sisters, which is funny because one of her sons, my cousin Chris, had eight daughters.
She was in good health up until just three months ago. She was 92 and still lived by herself in her home in Medford, MA. But she succumbed to combination of heart disease, vasculitis, and pneumonia. When they released her from the hospital after the pneumonia, she told the family she was never going back to the hospital. She died at home under hospice care. My cousin Linda and Chris were taking care of her as well.
Aunt Eileen seemed to be the mom you wanted, always looking out for the kids. Taking care of the house and home. And she had quite the brood to contend, not to mention her husband the general. Think of my father only more so.
Sad to think that that generation is gone with the exception of my mother.
I don't know what the funeral planning is going to be. I'd like to attend, but Covid might say otherwise.

They just started allowing funerals in Massachusetts. There are lots of restrictions. I'm flying out Thursday.
