Mary Elizabeth Flynn, 92, of Watertown passed away peacefully Saturday morning, March 13, 2021, at Samaritan Keep Home where she resided since August 2014.
Mary was born in Watertown on May 13, 1928, daughter of Robert J. and Veronica C. Repholz Easton and was a 1946 graduate of Immaculate Heart Academy. On February 4, 1950 she married William J. Flynn, Jr. at Holy Family Church with Rev. F. P. Shue officiating. Mr. Flynn died June 16, 2014.
She was a switchboard operator at Watertown High School and NY Telephone (Watertown & Fort Drum). Mary was more than a communicant of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Church; she was an active participant and supporter of all things Sacred Heart. She was a Eucharistic Minister, President & long-time member of its Altar Rosary Society, Religious Education Teacher, President of Home & School, member of the choir, festival worker, and dance organizer (this one was a little selfish as she loved to dance with dad). She was a member of the Home Bureau and served as 10th Ward supervisor for 10 years but never was a politician! When mom wasnât serving others (which was rare), she loved to shop, travel, play the penny slots with Ida, but her favorite time was that spent with her husband, children, and grandchildren.
