I served under the Admiral onboard USS Saratoga. I was honored to be his driver in Philadelphia the day he got his stars. I was also honored to meet with Admiral and Mrs. Flatley a few times in Newport Rhode Island, where I was again his driver.

I am so sorry to hear of Jim´s passing. I went to church with him at St Benedict and fell in love with Jim, Nancy and Miss Dot. When they would have celebrations at the church the Flatley´s were always the first to help with cleanup. I would always tell me daughter she was privileged to have KP duty with THE Rear Admiral! My heart goes out to Nancy and the family. Hedy
