James Fluckey

Mr. Fluckey was the kindest and most generous teacher that I have ever known! No other teacher inspired such greatness in his students... It was an honor to be among the select few to be a member of the Concert Choir and perform on the Singing Christmas tree! Not only for me but I know of several students that would not have been in and completed school if not for being in the choir! We love you and we miss you! It is good to know that the angels have someone who can truly inspire...

Yvonne Ornelas, class of '84, I am deeply saddened by your passing, Mr. Fluckey as the world is poorer one great man. I can't wait to see what you do with the Angels' choir! You will be greatly missed by many who were so very privileged to have known you.
Thank you for touching so many lives. You are always in our thoughts, our hearts and in our fondest memories.

Fond memories of a terrific teacher and friend. Rest in peace, Mr. Fluckey.

In all the years I knew him I never heard him say an unkind word about anyone - except Republicans. And I'm not sure he was really unkind to them. He never yelled at anyone - except the concert choir if they were singing off key. And he only yelled with love in his heart. He also never yelled angrily at Irma James or me as we played bridge during lunch time.
