Kathy and the entire Flanagan Family -

I am sorry this is late, however I only just found out about your father. I watched the entire video - what a beautiful tribute and what a wonderful family he and your mother created. I remember Kathy telling little stories about her Dad while growing up with her in school. You are all truly blessed but I'm sure you know that. Rest in the fact that your mom and dad are now together again and probably have huge smiles as they watch over you all !! Again, my most sincere sympathies and prayers for comfort.

To the Flanagan Family -- While I do not know your family personally, I do want to share a story with you that happened when I was doing the 1970 Census. I had your family. I arrived at your house and your parents were returning from a grocery shopping trip. I was invited to come into the kitchen to ask my questions - and went into the spotless kitchen - and started my little interview while they put groceries away. I might be mistaken about this, but I sort of recall that your father was a trick worker and was either going to work - or to sleep before the trick. At any rate I began asking about the family, and one, by one, by one, by one, by one and on it went. I was totally awestruck -- I could not believe my ears and one by one, I wrote down each name and birthdate. I left that house in disbelief as I thought about the mess I had left at home, with just two kids while I ran out to earn a few extra dollars. The story has made me smile for all those years.... So thank you for that -- and please accept my sincere sympathy in the loss of your Dad, Grandpa, Great-Grandpa.... what a legacy!

Sincerely,

Marilyn Koss Wright

I was sorry to hear about your loss. I haven't seen Bud in many years but always enjoyed talking to him when I saw him at family gatherings. My prayers are with the family. Debbie Cannioto
