To Aunt Ruth and my cousins Ruthie, Mary, and Helen,

I just learned today of uncle Pat's death and want to express my sympathies. I know how hard it is to lose such an important member of one's family.

All my best,
Maureen

I read about Pat today. Please accept our sympathies. It has been a long time since we've seen the Flanagans but you folks have always been in my memory. Working with Pat on the Jones Board and with Ruth on the Jones Auxiliary were very fine times in my life. Patrick was a "gentle man", always caring and giving to community and folks around him I recall the Jones Center Christmas parties and Patrick was always there with a smile and kind words. He is a person I remember as having grace, dignity and love of fellowman. The community is a better place because of him. ...Sincerely, Joe and Shirley Kovach, Naperville, IL
