Flynt in November 1947. They had six natural children and one adopted. As a family, she and Dad made Albuquerque their home in 1950.

She will be greatly missed as she was a part of their daily lives. Our family would like to extend our love and gratitude to Rozina Bhanzi, who daily helped care for Mom and became her friend since the passing of our Dad. As we think of Mom we were so blessed that we were all able to be together before she passed. We are sadder than any words could express. The one thing we find peace with, is that Mom missed her sweetheart, Jim, so much that we can picture Dad with a smile and twinkle in his blue eyes -- greeting Mom with a "Coke" and "I'm glad your finally here, Babe". They are together now and that's all that matters. We cry for you Mom and will miss you but we let you go to be with Dad.
