Suzanne Lynch

So saddened to hear of Suzanne’s passing! I was privileged to become friends with her and work with her as a performer (on top of everything else everyone else has said she was a wonderful actor). She was a complete joy to know and was a genuine, good soul. I feel lucky to have known her for the time I did. My thoughts are with her daughter, who sadly I didn’t get to meet.

I am Suzanne’s simultaneous interpreting partner, and have been searching for Suzanne for two months, until today I found this site and discovered the terrible news of her death. My distress is boundless. During the past four years we became fast friends performing countless remote evening jobs together for the NYC Housing Authority and Geneva WorldWide interpreting agency. During that time I heard so many adorable Dylan stories that I feel like her invisible auht. PLEASE can someone put me in touch with Suzanne’s relatives, so I can find out how Dylan is doing and who has taken over her care? I would also like to give her free French lessons, if desired, in honor of Suzanne’s memory. You can contact me via Facebook or LinkedIn or via the email address I provided the administrator of this site. I am so terribly, terribly sorry.

We became fast friends during that time, and share so many adoring Dylan stories that I feel like an invisible aunt.

There are no words for the sadness that consumes us with the loss of Suzanne. As I sit and try to put my thoughts and feelings into written form, I have to pause. There is an indescribable feeling that cannot be put into words. As the youngest cousin in the group, I always looked up to my older cousins. Suzanne would always be so chic casual cool and carefree. I would stand outside her door and listen to her sing when I was at our family thanksgivings on Weed Street. She had such a Beautiful
Voice. I was always in awe of her adventure to France, living in Paris and speaking French fluently! Although we will never understand or have answers as to why she had to leave this world so young, she has left us all with our memories. Whether they are big, small, silly, or serious, we have those. Dylan, she had no greater love than what she had for you ! She was so proud of you and will always be your guiding light as you navigate this world with family and friends lifting you up. Suzanne will forever be her colorful and artistic self shining down on us with a proud smile and lots of love.

Suzy was a friend of our daughter, Sarah. I still picture them on Brown graduation day in 1990, marching down the hill together, bonded by amazing friendship that started when they met at 18. She was a gift to the life of all those who met her.

My deepest condolences to Dylan and the family. Dylan was enrolled in our ballet program for a number of years starting in 2018 at Discovery on the UWS and she was supposed to come to gymnastics camp for a week this summer. When she didn’t come for camp and I didn’t hear from Suzanne, I found it odd and I worried. I came across this obituary. I was so saddened to read this news. Suzanne was such a light and always wanted the best for Dylan. She was so communicative with me and always kept me up to date on her and Dylan. I even heard from Suzanne in May that Dylan made it into SAB at NYC Ballet. Suzanne was always immensely grateful and appreciative for Dylan being in our ballet program. She was a special parent in the community of parents I meet everyday. I would love to be in touch with someone from the family to see how Dylan is doing and if there is anything I can do. Please reach out to me at katie.discovery@gmail.com or at 212-749-8717. I am sending love, support and prayers to the family and especially to Dylan.

We are deeply saddened by Suzanne’s passing away. We met Suzanne and Dylan 2 years ago, and Suzanne’s kind and generous spirit made it easy to become friends quickly. Her creativity in turning every get together into a special occasion for the children, her positive outlook even in difficult situations, her strength and courage will continue to inspire us. Our sincere condolences to Dylan and Suzanne’s family.

I learned of Suzanne’s passing nearly a year after it happened. I am simply devastated by this loss. My daughter and Dillie were close friends throughout preschool and in the couple of years that followed, before we lost contact with them. My husband and I both formed a friendship with Suzanne and have incredibly fond memories of our time with her. She was not only a deeply loving and devoted mother, but also an exceptionally talented individual with what seemed like an endless array of skills. Between the countless playdates, celebrating birthdays and special occasions, and the meaningful, long talks we had, I feel lucky to have gotten to know her so well and will forever cherish those memories. All of my love to sweet Dylan, who I hope to see soon.

Praying for Dylan. My heart is broken for you. I hope the years have allowed you to heal and grow in the company of love.

I have always loved my daughter, Stacey’s friends, but Suzanne was an exception. We bonded with her from the very start. We loved seeing her on our trips to New York. At their graduation from Brown, I think we embarrassed everyone by dancing on the table. But we didn’t care. We were having so much fun. I will miss her forever.

Our friendship began in college and continued throughout our lives. Suz also became close to my parents who would visit her in NYC when they came up from VA. One thing I loved about Suz was that she could be both incredibly fun and free spirited and also be a serious, deep thinker. She also genuinely cared about the lives of her friends. When we talked or saw each other throughout the years, she would insist on hearing about me and the family before I could hear anything about her and Dylan. And watching Suz with Dylan was just wonderful. To see how happy she was when she was pregnant with Dylan (photo in Central Park) to all she did throughout the years to give Dylan an amazing home and life. Just this past May, Suz was so proud when Dylan got accepted to the American Ballet texting me with pictures and letting me know it happened on her “very first audition!” I continue to be shocked and heartbroken. I will miss my dear friend greatly and do all I can to keep her memory with us. Suz — you will forever be deep in my heart.

Dearest Suzanne, you will always be remembered and you will always be missed. You are forever in our hearts.
Dearest Dylan,
Your mom’s smile always lit up a room. There was no one like her and I miss her.
Love Aunt Evy

“Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.”

God Bless.
Rest in Peace Suzanne.

Fun times with Dillie…

“So do not fear for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

I will forever cherish our play dates. My sincere prayers to the Lynch family. Dillie, we love you ❤️

JOYFUL …

My dear friend for more than three decades, Suzie was a bright light. A devoted mother, she was also a dreamer, a thinker, and a writer. I admired her determination, independence, sensitivity, and strength. I will miss our talks, and I will miss her laughter and friendship. My deepest condolences to her family. May her soul rest in peace.

In memory of my beautiful friend Suzanne

My beloved ‘sister’ friend Suz… What a bright light, a loving friend and an incredible mom. Incredibly difficult to imagine life without Suz. She was my touch stone who stored all of our joint memories of adventure and deep friendship. I will always love and miss her for the rest of my days.

My dearest beloved friend Suzanne,
Since high school, Suzanne has filled my life with so much light and joy. I have never laughed as hard or as often as I did when I was with her. Her courage and independence inspired me. I loved her and miss her so. I send my deepest sympathies to the family. Many of my memories include wonderful times with you as well. It was also such a joy watching her dote on Dylan, who brought her so much happiness. I send all of my love to all-

In remembrance of my beautiful friend Suzanne. I love you and will cherish our memories forever.

Missing my beautiful, fun and smart college roommate. Suz brought me the joy of laughter. I know Dylan will carry her love and humor. I am sorry.

Precious Suz,
Quatorze Juillet! We will all continue to surround Dylan with the fierce love you gave her these too few years you had with her. Your friendship is a treasure I will always keep close to my heart.
Love,
Lizzie

A dreamer and sweet, dear friend of mine, these lyrics came to mind, “you’ll be with me like a handprint on my heart, and now whatever way our stories end, I know you gave re-written mine by being my friend. . . . Because I knew you, I have been changed for good.” Our stories we’ve written together may have come to end but your story continues through us-friends and family-and through Dylan. I treasure our time together. My heart, though heavy with loss, sings because I am lucky to have had a friend like you. Joe, Axel and I will carry you with us, Suzanne and we’ll wrap our arms around Dylan.

My dearest beloved friend Suzanne,
Words cannot express how much I loved you, how much fun I had with you, how often or how hard I laughed with you. I am ever so grateful for your friendship. Your brilliance, kind heart, and joie de vivre will stay with me always. My deepest sympathies to Dylan, Michele, your mother, Denise, and entire family.

All my love,

Victoria Miller
