Kevin Michael Lynch, age 79, of Fall Creek, passed away at home on Sunday, June 2, 2024. He was born
in Shakopee, MN, on April 26, 1945, to the late John and Agnes Lynch.
Kevin attended Catholic schools in Shakopee and De La Salle in Minneapolis through the ninth grade. He
graduated from Shakopee High School and later attended St. John’s University in Collegeville. He played

children, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.

Cody; sister-in-law Melody Mendolia; nieces Jennifer (Jill Davis) Knutson, Marcy (Daniel) Gearity, Katie
Knutson, Madilyn Knutson, and Lauren Knutson; and nephews Erik Knutson, Brian (Mary) Knutson,
