Stansell "Stan" Lynch, 74, passed away at home on August 13, 2022, surrounded by his family. He was born on February 21, 1948, to Carolan "Smokey" and Arlien Lynch in Dardenelle, Arkansas, where he also grew up and was a star athlete in track and football. After high school graduation, Stan joined the Navy and fought in three tours in the Vietnam war, performing electronic surveillance on river patrol boats. After completing his military service, he attended the University of Arkansas. A few years later, Stan met his wife, Nancy, and they wed on May 29, 1982. The two started a family and moved to Texas in 1984. Stan spent about 30 years working in the lighting industry where he met lifelong friends and led a top-notch technical services team. Stan loved nature and enjoyed spending time at his cabin in Arkansas. At 68 years of age, Stan became a Master Naturalist and volunteered with conservation efforts. Lynch is survived by his wife, two daughters, son-in-law, and 3 grandchildren, who will miss Stans fighting spirit, kind soul, and positive attitude. A celebration of life will be held on August 29, 2002 at The Nature & Retreat Center at Oak Point Park (5901 Los Rios Blvd, Plano, TX 75074) from 2-5pm CT and is come-and-go as you please.
