Florence Flynn

Passed in: Dominion, Nova Scotia, Canada
Passed on: July 26th, 2010

Florence Flynn slipped away from her family and friends on July 26, 2010, after 90 years of a full and rich life.
Florence grew up and spent almost all her days on Neville Street in Dominion. She was the daughter of the late Michael MacPhee and Sarah MacCormick.
Her loving husband and best friend, Ted Flynn, passed away suddenly in February 1991.
Florence was the last surviving member of her family. She had been predeceased by her sisters, Marion MacPhee, Mildred Gouthro, Blanche MacDonald and Margaret 'Mamie' Boone as well as her brothers, Dan, Allen, Murdock, Arthur and Stanley.
Florence was a loving mother to Joseph 'Joe' Flynn, who now lives in Sydney, and Judy Flynn-Bedard, who resides in Gatineau, Que. Loving mother-in-law to Jody (Latimer) Flynn and Robert Bedard, she will be greatly missed by her grandchildren, Meaghan, Aaron, Alyssa Flynn and Matthieu Bedard.
Days won't be the same without Nan and Joe can now rest after years of loving care.
She will also be missed by Joseph 'Joe' MacDonald of Seaview Manor, who was an important part of her life's journey.
Florence was a teacher and was fortunate to have taught in her hometown.
Florence loved her extended family and leaves behind numerous nieces, nephews and godchildren, whom she loved greatly. Nothing made her happier than a house full of family and friends with Scottish music playing and dinner on the stove. Those times will be missed by all of us.
Cremation has taken place. A celebration of life funeral mass honouring Florence will be held on Tuesday, Aug. 3, 2010, at 11 a.m. at Immaculate Conception Church, in Bridgeport. Reception to follow in the basement of the church.
The family would like to extend their heartfelt appreciation to Dr. Spencer and the staff of the VON and Home Care, whose support enabled Florence to live in independence and comfort in her home for as long as she did. The family wants to also thank Brenda who cared for Florence over the past year and a half.
Donations in Florence's memory may be made to the Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation or the VON of Cape Breton.
