ETHAN LYNCH MEMORIAL FUND-A memorial fund has been set up in the name of the almost 3 year old boy who passed away December 30th in Elgin. Ethan Lynch died accidentally when a chest of drawers with a TV on it fell over on him. He would have been 3 years old on Feb 4th. The Ethan Lynch Memorial Fund will be used to help the family pay his medical and funeral expenses. Ethan’s family had no insurance coverage on him at the time of his death and has no other resources to cover his expenses. A close family friend, Pam Canada, established the fund at First Community Bank to help the family in their time of need. Contributions can be made at any First Community Bank in the Midlands to the Ethan Lynch Memorial Fund. For more information contact Pam Canada at 420-0950.
