Debra A. Flynn's Obituary
Debra A. Flynn, 65 of Crystal River, FL, formerly of Homestead, FL, passed away peacefully with her loving sister by her side on September 22, 2023.
Debbie was born to the late Francis and Rita Flynn on December 22, 1957, in Miami, Florida.

She was a devout Catholic that was loved and revered by all. Her passion and love for life and family was immeasurable. Being a mother, Grandmother, Sister, and Aunt brought her immense joy. She loved spending time with her family and friends, traveling for work, being on the beach, boating, fishing, and passionately cheering for the Miami Dolphins. She never passed on an opportunity to enjoy soaking up the sun or dancing in the rain. She also took immense pride in caring for the animals on her farm and working in her garden.
As a youth, she gained a fighting spirit and love for competition in the equestrian community, this was evident through the decades of work traveling throughout the nation working in competitive show jumping. There, she gained many beloved friends and treasured them all dearly.
Her celebration of life will be Wednesday, October 11, 2023, at Sunset Memorial Gardens in North Olmsted, OH. The viewing will take place from 12-2 with the service and entombment immediately following.
