I am sad to report the passing of our friend John Flynn. He was a strong member of our Fellowship for 47 years.
I have known John since my early days in recovery. His dedication to helping the still sick and suffering alcoholic is unmatched.
He helped countless alcoholics find their way, including me.
In his final days he told me how grateful he was for his life, that being an alcoholic in recovery had become a blessing and not a curse.
He accepted the inevitable with courage because he knew that acceptance was the answer.
He wasn’t a saint but he was an angel. I will miss him.
Semper Fidelis, John.
May God care for the soul and the memory of John. May he rest in peace forever.
God, please help me to be ok today. Thank You. Amen.
