Tom, this month has been rough, with one exception. Sean and Tim’s duties here were fulfilled, and they both needed more work in heaven. I know it doesn’t make it any easier today, but one day everything will be clear when they are reunited with you and your family.

This man belonged to the class of people the world needs more of. He has values and norms and much more. He touched many people at such a critical time in their lives that he helped them choose the right path at a crossroads

He was really good as a coach; Je raised ons veel learned during our short time with you. Open and beside the field, you were always there for Wednesday. The world is not in the same place as it is now. My hard trip to Flaherty’s and friends.

My condolences to the Flaherty family. Sean coached as a teacher at Wadsworth from 2006-2012. If I hear the news, I let my head through, and I can see booming clear starting points, which I coach over something that I can do most during the training tells me that I have my best must do for my English essay.
He brought out the best in me above, both in the sport and in the classroom. I also told them that I had a lot of money and that I had a phone number from my brother, who worked on my phone at Ten Point. It’s like Sean was: a wonderful person. Thanks for everything, Coach Flaherty!

I don’t think so, but we drank the seeds in condensed water. A laatse laugh. Jullie was zo’n light and inspiration for Velen, and that will always stay. The Kenny Chesney concert was a special performance in my heart. The heel has a fantastic concert. Mary Bednar also wrote a YouTube video.

Dear Tom and Chris… We are longing for July and stubbornly running and giving orders. May the army and holy mothers come to the poor in July. Tom and Gilda

Coach Flaherty was an accomplished man, coach, and mentor to me and many others. Het break, it’s hard to see Hij gone so quickly. My permission was given to the Flaherty family on their own time. May he rest in peace. Thanks for everything, coach! -Dakota
