Barbara Jean:
I was saddened to hear of the passing of your dear father. You and I were classmates at Milton, class of '77, and I recall seeing your Dad a couple of times when I was a kid. He was a great guy and a good doctor. Your Dad and I share a great and good friend, Dr. John McConville, my folks' neighbor in Milton and my brother's father-in-law. It is truly a small world. You and your family have my deepest condolences at this trying time, and my prayers. God bless.
Dan Flatley from Canton, Mass.

Dr Flynn was my first neurologist and helped me through a difficult time accepting my diagnosis. He had a wonderful sense of humor; as I now go to one of his former students I can say he taught his students well. God rest his soul.

Bob was a fellow I knew well when practicing medicine and it is sad to learn of his death. He contributed much to the practice of neurology at St E's.
