I was so sorry to hear of Pat's passing. It was my great pleasure to have had Pat and Joe serve as our districts' attorney in Roseville, Glencoe, and Centennial. I considered the Flynn brothers great friends, quality people, generous, loyal, dedicated. I grieve the loss of Pat. He spoke lovingly of his family. God bless and keep you all at this difficult time. Roger and Kay Worner

My love and sympathy are with all of Patrick's family. My family has known Jack (before he changed his name to Patrick)since he was very young. He was very sensitive and kind and had a smile that touched your heart. He was a gentle man. I think of him with Joe and Don, his two older brothers. Joe was like a father and mentor to him. They were very close. My love and peace to you from the Christenson family. Love and peace to all of you.

Matt, sorry to hear about your Dad! I can't help but smile when I picture him in my mind with the twinkle in his eye and his devious-side-smile. God Bless you all...
