Terry Lynn Lynch, 74, of Marion, OH, passed away peacefully on July 20, 2023, after a 7-year-long battle with cancer.
She was born on July 9, 1949, to John R. and Mary Jean Johnson in Marion, OH. She was a graduate of Marion Catholic high school. After high school, Terry worked in human resources at Marion Power Shovel for 27 years and continued to work in human resources via her successful consulting company until her retirement at the age of 55.
She married Jerry D. Lynch on October 18, 1969. Terry and Jerry celebrated their 53rd wedding anniversary in 2022.
Terry was an avid antique and vintage collector and dealer. Her passion, however, was repurposing vintage fabric to create one-of-a-kind clothing items and selling them through her business Vintage Delights. Her creations were published on two occasions, something that she was very proud of.
She was preceded in death by her father, John R. Johnson. She is survived by her mother, Mary Jean Johnson, of Marion, OH; her brother, John R. Johnson, of Marion, OH; her husband Jerry D. Lynch, of Marion, OH; her children Heather R. (Morry) Peyton, of Marion, OH; her son Aaron H. (Andrea) Lynch of Westerville, OH; and her four grandchildren, Ella, 16; Carly, 14; Griffin, 13; and Mallory, 11. Terry is also survived by many cousins, aunts and uncles and friends.
Terry wished to be cremated and did not wish to have funeral services. The family will have a celebration of her life at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating in her name to a charity of your choice.
