dennis p. Lynch '59 Merit scholarship
 

The Dennis P. Lynch ’59 Merit Scholarship is generously donated by the Lynch Family in memory of Dennis’s exemplary character and love of his alma mater. After a full and remarkable life as a leader, mentor, friend, husband and father, Dennis died on April 10, 2021.

The Lynch Scholarship is a four-year, full tuition merit scholarship awarded annually to an incoming freshman who has proven to be a well-rounded student leader, dedicated to learning and personal growth. The student selected will be expected to remain in good standing at RBC. Lynch Scholars will be encouraged to use their God-given talents to live the mission established by the Sisters of Mercy in an active way in both the school and the larger community.

In accepting the award, each recipient should understand and appreciate Dennis’s legacy in work and in life, as well as his respect and love for his alma mater. The Lynch Scholar should also remember that with receiving this prestigious honor comes the responsibility of embracing Dennis’s values and aspiring to be someone of whom he would have been proud.
