Lynch was born February 22, 1956, the third of six children to Clayton and Marjorie Lynch. His siblings are Brian, Neil, Kirt, Marcia and Alicia. He was raised in Techier, a small village in the borough of Point Fortin, Trinidad, West Indies. As a child, Hayden was very academic, excelling from grade-to-grade. Due to his love for academics, he was accepted into Point Fortin College at eleven years old. His parents, wanting more opportunities for their children, immigrated to the United States in 1971, and settled in Brooklyn, NY. Hayden attended and graduated from Franklin K. Lane High School. He later attended Medgar Evers College where he majored in Finance and graduated Magna Cum Laude. After college, he enlisted in the United States Air Force (USAF). Shortly thereafter, he was commissioned as second lieutenant, traveling to places such as Australia, Greenland, and the Philippines. He married Catherine Williams in 1983, and had two daughters, Tasaday and Naomi. While in the USAF, he attended Webster University and earned a Master of Information Technology degree. He resigned his commission as a Captain in 1992 after fourteen years of dedicated service. After retirement, the family settled in Jonesboro, GA, where he dedicated his time to developing his daughters’ academic and extracurricular activities. Inspired by his father Clayton, who was a welder, he taught himself how to build furniture and started a successful wood-working business. Hayden was a great man and would do anything to help others; no task was too large. Hayden went home unexpectedly on May 17, 2020, at the age of 64. He is survived by his mother, siblings, two daughters, nephews, nieces and ex-wife. He will forever be greatly loved and remembered by many. To honor the life of Hayden E.
