[Colorado-Talk] Passing of Janeen Flanigan

[Jessica Beecham]

Hello everyone,

 I’m sorry to share very sad news.  Many of you know Janeen  Flanigan.
Sadly, she passed away on January 8th.  She attended  some of our state
conventions and NFB of Colorado events. Even when she wasn’t in attendance,
she often reached out and supported our auction and other affiliate
endeavors. While her home was in Florida, she made a second home here in
Colorado and we will miss her.

The below Facebook post  was posted through her account today. David Dumphy
did let me know last week but I wanted to find out more details about any
arrangements or requests for support, donations in memorium etc

 I did reach out And ask if any support was needed  Or if there was
anywhere that we could make a donation in her memory. At this time, there
is no immediate need or request for donations in her memory.  Please join
me in sending love, prayers, good wishes, and support to David and the rest
of Janeen’s loved ones.

Best Wishes

Jess

She has long poofy brown hair and sunglasses resting on top of her head.
Her shirt is green and sleeveless. Orange text with black outline on top
reads "Janeen Lea Flanigan December 13, 1974 - January 8, 2026".

>From Dan: I apologize if this is how you're finding out. Holly and I tried
to contact everyone we could think of, but a few always slip through the
cracks. Janeen tragically did not recover from a fast-spreading infection
of necrotizing fasciitis (flesh-eating disease). She went through surgery
to remove it on the night of January 3 and was placed on a ventilator and
under heavy sedation. The damage was too severe and her organs began to
fail. She was declared deceased just before 10 pm on Thursday, January 8.

We are planning a celebration of life to be held in the future; please stay
tuned for details. If there is any way that you feel that you could help,
if there is anything of Janeen's that you think she would have wanted you
to have, or if you just want to talk about how loving and amazing Janeen
was, please contact Dan or Holly.
