Charlie Flanagan, age 71, of Louisville, passed away Thursday morning, June 30, 2016 at Baptist East Palliative Care. Charlie graduated from St X High School in 1963 and attended Bellarmine College.
He served in the US Marine Corps and was a Viet Nam War Veteran. He loved nothing more than to sit on the deck of his houseboat at Conley Bottom Marina feeding cheese puffs to his ducks and reading his books. His compassionate heart and lively sense of humor have brought much happiness to those who have known him. His light and laughter will be missed. Charlie is preceded in death by his parents Henry Charles Sr. and Katherine Flanagan.

Charlie is survived by his siblings, Maureen White (Dave), Kathy Huber (Jim), Kevin Flanagan (Ellen), Patty Flanagan-Linderman (Chris), Mary Flanagan (Dennis Willan) and Christy Flanagan; many nieces, nephews, extended family and special friends.

The family would like to express our gratitude to the staff of Springhurst Health and Rehab as well as to the staff of Baptist Palliative Care.

Visitation will be 4-6pm Wednesday, July 6,, 2016 at Newcomer Funeral Home, 235 Juneau Drive in Middletown, with a memorial service to follow at 6pm.

Expressions of sympathy may be made to the St Vincent DePaul Society.
