Papa Brian's obituary

Brian David Lynch, born September 26th, 1948 in Montreal Canada, was an adoring father of four, an astrologer, an occult bookstore owner, a Hare Krishna, an electrician, a limo driver, an actor and a student and teacher of History. He was someone that added gravity to the room without taking up all the oxygen. In 2016, he received a groundbreaking procedure, giving him a new lease on life- stopping cold, the tremors that came as a result of the Parkinson’s diagnosis he had been living with for the better part of a quarter century. On Saturday, December 2, 2023 at 5:05pm, “Papa,” at 75 years old, took his final breath on this earth, comfortable and surrounded by love, with his only daughter by his side. Throughout it all, Brian never lost the sparkle in his eye, his wit, his charm - extended to his four children - or to anyone who was lucky enough to share in his long-winded conversations. He made anyone he talked to feel interesting and interested in, always ready to fill an ear with a detailed and expansive answer to a question you never asked. His gentle spirit, charm, and deep fountain of wisdom will live on in the hearts of those that knew him, leaving a legacy of love and light in a world that cries out for kindness.
