Not sure what to say?

I just found out about Jim´s passing the other day when I sent him a text. Jim and I were like brothers growing up when he was at my house all the time. The friendship continued and we would all get to together and listen to bruins hockey games. Played softball and golf for many years. Even though we had been out of contact I would stay up to date with reports from Mike Mirra. I am so very sad to hear that he is no longer with us. My love to Keith, Linda and the rest of his family. We have...

May God bless Jim's family in this time of sorrow. He will always be part of my memories of Assumption Catholic Academy. Susan Seeger Schad Class of 66

So sorry to hear of Jim's passing. He was a wonderful person. My condolences to Keith, Suzanne, Emily and family

That smile...so genuine. Shimmy (that's what I called him) made every day better with that smile. So sorry for your loss.

Words cannot begin to express the feeling of loss I have with the passing of Jimmy Flynn. Jim was an incredibly important part of my youth in Syracuse: Lyncourt, St. Daniel´s, Wayland Rd, Darlington Rd, Assumption Academy, the Sisters of St. Francis, basketball, baseball, Friday night dances, proms, the blackout of `65, and the blizzard of `66. As the years passed, our interaction decreased. But not the appreciation for all the experiences we shared. Condolences to Jim´s immediate and...

So sorry to Linda Keith Susan Emily and Sue. John and I are so sorry for your loss. John and Jimmy were friends for many many years and were members of the 174 th. Our friendship goes way back with Keith and Susan skating and Paulette watching the kids. Every time we saw Jim he talked about Emily. Much love to you all and now Jim is at peace and out of pain. John has lost another old friend. It´s sad. Keep your memories close to your hearts always and every day

I remember many happy hours playing sports in the street or backyard basketball with Jimmy, who was a nearby neighbor when we grew up in Lincourt together. He was an animated and bright spirit and although we only crossed paths occasionally over the years, I remember him was great affection and appreciation and send condolences to his lovely family and trust in his blessings to them from eternal joy.

So sorry for your loss. I'm one of the St. DANIELS crew. Jimmy was always well liked . And he will be missed. May he rest in peace.

My Condolences to Keith´s and his family Rest in peace Mr.Flynn
