TO ALL THE FLANAGAN "KIDS" -- OUR MEMORIES OF YOUR MOM & DAD WOULD FILL UP VOLUMES OF BOOKS, BUT MOSTLY THE KINDNESS OF BOTH OF THEM TO US AND OUR CHILDREN STANDS OUT. HOSPITALITY WAS AS THE TOP OF THE LIST. WE HAVE MANY GOOD STORIES OF TIMES AT BOTH YOUR HOUSE AND OURS, AND THE COMBINATION OF AT LEAST 10 OR MORE FLANAGANS AND SHANAHANS MADE FOR SOME GREAT TIMES, ESPECIALLY OUR OWN PRIVATE 'MASS' ON MANY SUNDAYS IN OUR BACKYARD. ALSO REMEMBER WHEN THE HIGH SCHOOL OFFICE GAVE THE WRONG REPORT CARDS TO SOME OF YOU AND SOME OF THE SHANAHANS? THEY NEVER FIGURED OUT WHICH IRISH LAST NAME BELONGED TO WHICH KOREAN YOUNGSTER. ALL OF US ARE WITH YOU IN PRAYER. MARGE & JOHN (GENEVA, NY), MARK (LOS ANGELES), CHRISSIE (GEORGETOWN, MASS.), RAY (CANTON, MASS.), LIZ (COS COB, CT.), LUKE (LOUISVILLE, KY).
