Kevin and family,

My deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. She was an amazing woman with lots of heart, determination, and courage. I last saw her a couple of days prior to discharge from the hospital. We were laughing together in her room. I remember commenting to some of the other nurses how happy she looked.

My most sincere sympathy go out to your entire family. I have known Ms Flynn for about a year now. And as many of us here in the MICU I believe that Sally was a strong woman with an incredible heart. Last time I saw Sally she gave me a big smile and that is just perfect because that is the way I want to remember her.

To Kevin and the entire Flynn Family,



We were all sorry to hear of Sally's passing. She was a joy and a pleasure to see each week in our studio. Having won our Survivor fitness program last year at Redefined, we all came to know what a true Survivor she really was. We will miss her smiling face and know she is now at peace. To Kevin and the girl's, our prayers and thought are with you.



Sincerely,



Eric, Silviu and her whole family at Redefined Fitness

I worked with Sally many years ago at Baxter Healthcare. Sally and I shared the love of exercise and talked about running a lot.



She is in my prayers as is the entire family. She was a special lady.
