Father Lynam was a special person in my life. He was my priest,my teacher,and my friend.He drove to Wolf Creek to provide instruction to both of my parents, My mother was a convert and my dad a lapsed catholic. I rode back and forth to Wolf Creek every week when he was the pastor. When I was teaching in Canada and he was serving in Eurekea Mt.he came to Nelson to check up on me.When father was in the at the Waterford and the alzhiemers disease was bad father still knew that I was Frenchy’s kid. I will miss his presence desparately. My families thouhts and prayers are with his family.

What a priest? What a man? What a Christian? I will never forget this “institution”. May he rest in peace.

I wanted to extend my condolences for Fr.Lynam. Although I did not personally know him, he was a friend of my mother’s brother, Rev. Robert V. Nevans of Denver. Fr. Robbi always spoke highly of him and in the late 50’s Fr. Lynam was primarily responsible for a “reunion” near Helena which brought my uncle and several other priests together. I met him briefly then and realize with hindsight that those guys were to be envied for the friendship they shared from their seminary/priesthood days. My sympathy is with you.
