Doris Flynn: Our Angel In Heaven

It is with heavy hearts that we inform you that our beloved Doris Flynn passed away on Thursday, October 22, 2015. She had worked in our rectory front office for over 20 years. Everyone who entered the rectory had the pleasure of meeting Doris who always had a smile on her face and a box of tasty chocolates at her side. She amazed all of us with her charm and ability to answer every question about our St. Gregory Church and School. Throughout her years of service, she was known as the “brain” behind the Church calendar. Only Doris knew how to organize a whole year of baptisms, marriages, retreats, and special occasions so that everyone left her office happy. She cherished her time at St. Gregory Catholic Church and School. Doris will be greatly missed by the St. Gregory family. She will always be our angel who makes a difference in all our lives.
