Marcus James Flanery

Many fond memories were shared together that will last forever. From exploring the city of New York for the first time, to riding motorcycles in Malibu, to gaming in Phoenix and online, Marcus was a true humble friend who touched my life.
Simply put, Marcus was one of the good ones. He will be missed.

Also knew Marcus through a car forum, probably the same one most will mention. Never met him personally, but he always struck me as a great guy. My heart goes out to his family. Deepest sympathies.

Marcus and I became friends on the internet via our mutual love for cars and motorcycles. I had the pleasure of subsequently meeting him in person and celebrating a New Year's Eve together. He was one of the nicest, most-down-to-earth guys I knew. Not a pretentious bone is his body. He will be greatly missed but live on fondly in our hearts and memories with him.

Only knew him through a forum and never met him. But he was in my life to some degree and that means something to me on a personal level.
Prayers to his family. I'm so sorry for you loss.

Laura, Marlene, David, & family, I'm so sorry for your loss words cannot express how you must feel. My thoughts & prayers are with you always.

Laura and family, we are so sorry to hear of the loss of Marcus. Cherish all your memories and love by keeping them close to your heart.
All our thoughts and prayers for you and baby.

Laura, we are so sorry to hear of this tragedy. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family to give you strength in this tremendous time of loss.

Laura - I am so sorry for you loss but remember this: You will lose someone you can't live without, and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn't seal back up. And you come through. It's like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly—that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the whole family for your loss.

We are so sorry for your loss. Your family has our deepest condolences.

Wayne and Mia Virene

Caring thoughts and prayers, Linda and Mike Kroeger

I'm so sad to hear this news and want to share our thoughts and prayers to the Flanery Family. Always have good memories of the days Marcus was growing up.
I know The Lord, family, and friends already in Heaven had open arms when he entered. God Bless from The Coy Family.

Dear Laura, I am so sorry for this terrible tragedy. In looking at all of the beautiful pictures you both look extremely happy. It is good that you have very special memories to hold on to and trust that one day you will be together again. I know your family is very close and everyone will be there for you. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I will remember Marcus's sly wit and dry humor. That he will live on in his Son is a beautiful thing. Peace and love be with you and your family in this trying time.

So sad for all of his family! I can't imagine what mere words would be a comfort if I had just lost my son, brother, or husband, but yet I woke up with a heavy heart for each of you this morning. Sending love and light to all of you- Laura, whom I hadn't met: it breaks my heart that you should go through this at all but especially while expecting your first child, David & Vicki, I wish I could reach across the states and hug you both, for David III- my heart is with you, and Jenni- I know that the Flanery family is so near and dear to you. I hope that you can all carry each other through this time of grief. Much love to all of you!

(A friend of Jenni Ferrell's)

To the Flanery family my thoughts & prayers are with you during this time of loss. Maybe the love and peace of the Lord surround your family.

You will be missed everyday. Won't be a day that something doesn't remind me of you. Goodbye my brother till we meet again.

It is of heavy hearts to learn of this tragedy and the impact of such a young couple and their loving families. We hope that you know your loss is felt deeply by our family and that you are in our thoughts and our prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers for your family.....

For all the years Marcus lived with us he was a joy. Truly love him like our own and will miss him forever. My heart goes out to you Laura and your lovely Baby.

My prayers are with you Laura, and with your family,and to Marcus's family as well. You all are in my thoughts as you suffer your loss. Words can't express my sorrow for you, I pray you find comfort, and know we are there to support you.
