It is with deep sadness that we share with you the passing of Reverend Edward Bernard Flanagan “Fr. Ed” today at 10:45 am. He was 89. Shortly after Fr. Ed was anointed by Fr. Tim Boyle, in the company of some of his family, he entrusted himself fully to God.

Today, April 3, at his passing he celebrated his 65th Anniversary.

We loved him dearly. He was kind, intelligent and thoughtful, and even in his later life challenges, never lost his wonderful humour.
He lived as he believed!

In loving memory.
One of his large extended family.

We both knew Ed well in our younger years and loved and respected him. John lived and worked with him at the cathedral, on the marriage tribunal and when he was director of the Catholic Information Centre.

A wonderful man and priest has gotten his reward. He was such a great homilist and teacher. We have often said that had it not been for Father Ed, our faith would not be what it is.

Father Ed, you touched so very many lives and we are fortunate to be counted amongst that great number

Michael and Deb, Adam and Kate Gernat
