Patrick Flanagan Obituary

Patrick Thomas Flanagan

Patrick Thomas Flanagan, 37, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, passed away on September 1, 2025.

Patrick was born on July 29, 1988, to Cristie and the late Kirk Flanagan. He grew up in Albuquerque with his brother, Cole, and was part of a family who will remember him with deep love and affection.

He is survived by his mother, Cristie Flanagan; his brother, Cole Flanagan; Cole's wife, Kelcy; and his nephew, Ford Flanagan. He was preceded in death by his father, Kirk; and by his beloved dog, Tucker Reed.

Patrick built a career in Information Technology, where his intelligence, patience, and problem-solving nature made him someone others could always count on. If something was broken, Patrick was determined to make it work again.

Outside of work, Patrick lived life with enthusiasm for the things he loved most. He was a devoted fan of the Dallas Cowboys, known for hurrying through many a Thanksgiving dinner so he wouldn't miss kickoff. He loved sports, computers, and was an avid gamer.

He will be remembered for his mischievous grin, his ocean-blue eyes so full of life and curiosity, and a laugh that could light up any room. His family and friends will carry with them countless memories of his loyalty, humor, and adventurous spirit.

A service celebrating Patrick's life will be held at Tanoan Country Club on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. All who knew and loved him are welcome to attend. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made to your favorite charity, in his memory.

Though his life ended far too soon, Patrick leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and resilience that will live on in those who knew him.
