Nan
Margaret Flannigan, 66, passed away at the
Boundary County Nursing Home in Bonners Ferry
September 30, 2011. A Mass of Christian Burial
was held October 5 at St. Ann’s Catholic Church.
Nan was born on October 25, 1944, in Troy, New
York.
She is survived by her husband, Jim Flannigan,
who shared their lives for fifty years, her
daughter Maureen Krueger who resides in Bothell,
Washington, with her husband Keith and son
Keanu, and her daughter Colleen Mitchell who
resides in Montgomery, Alabama, with her husband
Jason and their sons Cole and Luke. She is also
survived by her mother Helen Fisher and her
three siblings; her sisters JoAnn Tarbay and
Mary Lee Rogers and brother Michael Fisher.
Nan moved to Idaho with Jim over forty years ago
from New York and her heart has always belonged
to the people and beauty of Boundary County.
She worked for the Forest Service in Western
Montana and was a dedicated school bus driver
with the Boundary County School District, where
she touched the lives of many students.
Nan shared her love of the outdoors through
backpacking and hiking with 4-H kids. She was a
faithful parishioner of St. Ann's Catholic
Church and a member of the choir and Altar
Society. Nan completed beautiful quilts and they
will be a comforting reminder of her love for us
in the years to come.
Her life was full of many adventures - she scuba
dived, skied, participated in fun runs,
completed triathlons, sailed, traveled to the
comers of the world with Jim, and loved her
family so very much. We are all blessed to have
been a part of her wonderful life. Although we
miss Nan dearly, we are so happy that she is in
a better place now and is at peace. Heaven has a
new angel.
The family suggests memorials be made to the
Alzheimer’s Society or the St. Ann’s Catholic
Church

Arrangements are entrusted to the care of
Bonners Ferry Funeral Home.
