I especially want to thank my husband John for his encouragement, support and cooperation, as I’ve neglected him since June. Also, my dear friends Rod and Jackie Hansen-my cheerleaders, and my inspiration. Jackie helped me form a biblical perspective of the issues, was a great message advisor and was and remains my true north. James Fry, who came up with great ideas and solutions and was able to get them done-yesterday, and to Kathy De Benedetto, my wingman who brought organization to the helter skelter of a last minute campaign. And last but not least, to my sister Susan who knows the issues inside and out and helped me from the beginning—I love you.

I also want to sincerely thank my opponent Darlene Swaffar who was the one I reached out to after my father’s stroke. Her direction and knowledge of the Medicare system was invaluable. She’s the real deal. I will be forever grateful for her advice and the consolation of my heart and I’m certain she will remain a lifelong friend, Deo Volente.

This was a fantastic journey and I met many American Patriots as well as some people who really didn’t like my positions at first but after thoughtful communication we were able to find common ground. I am truly grateful for the experience.

Kindest personal regards,
Fran Flynn
