Obituary

MADISON - Julie Lynn Lynch, age 58, passed away on Saturday, June 21, 2025, surrounded by loved ones. For the last two years Julie fought valiantly against Metastatic Breast Cancer.


Julie was born on November 18, 1966, in Madison, Wis., the daughter of Thomas and Mary Jo (nee Euper) Lynch. She grew up in the Nakoma neighborhood in Madison and attended and graduated from West High School where she met many lifelong friends. She received an associate degree from Madison College and was employed by UW-Madison for 32 years until her retirement. In addition to UW-Madison, Julie was employed with Mendota Mental Health for five years and Oakcrest Bar and Tavern for 35 years.


Julie will be fondly remembered as kind-hearted, incredibly generous and a friend to any and everyone. She would always go out of her way to make people smile. She was also a giving person and thankful for anyone who entered into her life. Julie enjoyed watching sports, especially rooting on the Packers and loved supporting her goddaughter and nieces’ and nephews’ sporting events. She was a pet lover and cared for a black lab/ husky mix named, Titan.


Julie is survived by her god daughter, Marquita Hilliard-Williams; siblings, Karen (Mike) Gardner, Cindy (Keith) Lynch, Jane Lewis and Kevin (Diane) Lynch; and nieces and nephews, Sarah Gardner, Kelly (Andrew) Wohler, Megan (Aaron) Robison, Greg (Maggie) Gardner, Hannah Gardner, Courtney (Ryan) Rutta, Ashley, Randey Lea and Lily Lewis and Samuel and Maxwell Lynch. She was preceded in death by her parents, Mary Jo Lynch and Thomas Lynch.


Her loved ones would like to give a special thanks to the staff at SSM health, Dr. Frontiera, Dr. Zurko, and Kathryn Hawley for their care during her cancer journey. Additionally, thank you to the staff at SSM Monroe Hospice for their end of life care. And an extra extra special thanks to Marquita, Courtney, Stacy Williams and Sue Persinger for their love and care, and all friends and family who visited Julie.

Ohhhh Julie. You have left this earth way too early! God Bless you! We shared so many wonderful memories growing up in Nakoma, swimming as an Orange Head and all the dance parties while our parents were having their own fun! So many memories attending West during the same time frame! You were a kind soul, with a big heart who will be missed. Rest in Peace Julie! You put up a courageous fight that is so admirable. Say hi to your parents and my father who are greeting you with open arms. Sending love and support to your family and friends! Sandy
