Will always have wonderful memories of Coach Flower. He was my Cross Country coach @ Roosevelt HS for 3 years. I learned teamwork, hard work and the thrill of victory with coach. He was a great teacher, leader and supporter to me and my teammates. I miss your support, guidance and humor. You were one of a kind coach. Bless you forever.

THERE ARE A FEW PEOPLE IN ALL OF OUR LIVES THAT MAKE A LONG LASTING IMPRESSION. COACH FLOWER (ROOSEVELT H.S.) YOU WERE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE. WHEN YOU WALKED INTO MY CERAMICS CLASS IN THE 9TH GRADE, YOU CHANGED MY LIFE AND HELPED MOLD ME INTO PART OF THE MAN I AM TODAY. I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY SEVERAL YRS BACK TO SEE YOU AND SAY THANK YOU. NOW HEARING OF YOUR PASSING HAS SADDENED ME DEEPLY. I WILL DO THE BEST TO CONTINUE WHAT COACHES DO BEST, INSPIRE. COACH-I LOVE YOU AND WILL ALWAYS MISS U. RIP

I'm saddened by the news of Joe Flower's passing. He was my coach at Roosevelt HS on the Cross Country teams which won 3 Yonkers City Championships from 1970-72. Coach was a great mentor to me and the whole team. We were young and impressionable and coach molded us into a team of winners who had fun but knew what it took to win - hard work, dedication and compassion. Thanks coach for your time, caring and leadership. May God bless you

May the good Lord keep you in the palm of his hand. You will always be a shining light.

My condolences to the Flower Family.
