To the Flynn Family,
On behalf of my family, please accept our condolences. I have wonderful memories of growing up next door. Debbie always had a smile on her face and was ready to play baseball, basketball, football or whatever else we could come up with. Even back then I knew she was a kind and caring person. My prayers are with you.

To Joan, Doug, Betsy, Billy & Jeffrey & family, I will never forget Debbie's athletic ability and her quiet, but strong Irish chuckle and incredible sense of humor, and love and care she had for her family. Debbie has and will always remind me of Bill, and please be comforted by the thought that now they are playiing catch in heaven and lamenting the fact that the Yankees are not in the playoffs/world series, and that their niece/cousin, is a Red Sox/Mets fan! :) Sorry, have no control over that!!

Our Love to all always, Jenny, Catherine, and Morgan. P.S. Morgan, is pretty sure the Red Sox will win the Series, sorry Billy!

To the Family of Deborah: I am so sorry for your loss. Debbie was as kind and gentle a soul as I could know in high school. Her athletic skills coupled with her humility made her a person you would want to know. Be well during this troubling time. Love
