Mr. James A. Flanagan

How sad I was to learn of Jim's passing. The memories of all the years when my Arthur and he worked together flowed back. They worked very hard, but had many laughs together. Jim was a loving husband and father and a wonderful friend. He will be sorely missed.

I am so sorry to know that Jim passed away. The fact that he was able to beat cancer for such a long time was an inspiration to all of us. Jim contributed so much and was an important part of our support group at the Wellness Center in Hanover and we have missed him very much. Fern Coyle

With a broken heart I hear of Jim's passing. He was a wonderful person to work with at Zayre Corp. I always enjoyed being with him. He was a great devoted, hard working member of the company. My heart goes out to Mary and the kids. Remember all the great times, no one can take them away. Stan Berkovitz

Jim & I have such fond memories of Jim. I worked with Jim for so many years at Zayre. All our carpool rides back and forth to Framingham, watching his children grow, laughing and joking with Mary. He was such a gentle, kind soul. I will always treasure our times together.

We will never forget the time we came for Christmas and Jim drove us to midnight mass in the fog where you could not see two feet in front of you just because John and I always went to midnight mass. He always went out of his way to make a big breakfast for us and would not take no for an answer. This is the kind hearted person he was always trying to please. Rest in peace. Love, Kathy & John.

I remember when Jim and Mary began the fight against cancer and asked me how I had managed it. I told them living one day at a time had worked for me. That you either focused on Living, or Dying. Jim chose Life. No matter how hard it was, he chose it everyday. He, and the friends and family who supported him showed unbelievable strength and courage. I do believe his spirit will stay with those who loved him, and hope his body is now pain free and at rest. Steve and I send our condolences and hugs, Amy-Jo
