Janet S. Flinn, 78 of Logansport, passed away on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, at Chase Center in Logansport.

Born on December 26, 1946 in Logansport, she was the daughter of the late Charles and Mary (Sullivan) Goodrich.

Janet was 1964 graduate of Pioneer High School.  On March 12, 1977 she married Michael N. Flinn, who survives.

Janet was formerly employed at Delco and Switches.

Survivors include her husband, Michael N. Flinn of Logansport; her son, Brian Flinn (Tara) of Columbia City, her brother, John Goodrich (Jane) of Logansport; and her sister, Jean Hudson of Solsberry, IN. She is also survived by several sister-in-law, nieces and nephews and great-nieces, and great-nephews. She is preceded in death by her brother-in-law, Terry Hudson.

Janet will be remembered for her kind heart, her gentle spirit, and the love she shared with her family and friends. Her warmth, laughter and care for others will continue to live on in all who knew her.
