Dear Ms.Beulah and Family, I will cherish the memories of going to church with you and Preacher Flanary at FFWB in Bristol. I can just hear him in my heart so proudly telling of his love for the Lord and his country. I loved the way he introduced his military rank that he alway gave on Vetran's Day. He would so proud to be a Christian and an American. I will miss him, but rejoice in knowing he has reached the portals of glory, praising his savior. He loved his family and was so proud of them, keep his legace alive, preach and live the gospel of Christ. Love you much, Sheila Grizzle

My condolences to the family. Rex and Sally Flanary were my great-grandparents, and I got to meet "Uncle Ralph" at family funerals over the years. He was a sweet man, I wish I had had the chance to know him better. I am truly sorry for your loss.

Sincerely,
Nina Singleton's granddaughter, Holly

God bless your family during your loss. I always loved hearing Mr. Flanary speak during bible studies. He always gave such insight to the scriptures. (First Frewill Baptist-Euclid Ave.)

Mamaw,

We are deeply saddened by Papaw's passing, but rejoice in knowing that he is now in the arms of our savior. He lived a blessed life on earth, and while his course here is finished, he will have everlasting life in Heaven. We will honor and cherish his memory and he will live in our hearts forever.

God Bless our Family,
Mike, Erika, Victoria, and Emily
