It is with great sadness that the family of Dian Flynn announces her passing after a heroic battle, on Saturday, June 9, 2018, at the age of 69 years. Dian is a native of Lorain, graduated from Lorain High School in 1967, attended Lorain County Community College, and devoted much or her career and personal time to helping others. She worked at St. Mary's Parish rectory for several years, then for Lorain County Department of Job and Family Services.
