Dear Soccer Friends:

It is with a heavy heart that I write to inform you of the passing today of Karen Flanagan, longtime NTSSA Board Member, US Youth Soccer Region III Girls ODP Chairperson, local volunteer, and soccer enthusiast.

Karen had been fighting a valiant battle against cancer for the last few years, during which she continued her efforts on behalf of soccer, most notably in her work with the US Youth Soccer and North Texas Soccer Olympic Development Programs. Few who knew Karen could doubt her commitment and passion, her good nature, and on occasion, her flash of Irish temper.

Karen will be sorely missed by all who knew her and we ask that you keep her husband, Mike, her sons, Brian and Brad and her entire family in your thoughts and prayers as they move forward during this time of loss and sorrow.

Thank you.

John Sutter

Karen & I never met in person, but have had several conversations via email regarding my daughter.
We will miss you Karen, and I still have all the emails that she sent me regarding the ODP Internationl trip this past Spring.

My condolences to her family. We will forever keep her in our hearts here in Austin.

Karen had been fighting a valiant battle against cancer for the last few years, during which she continued her efforts on behalf of soccer, most notably in her work with the US Youth Soccer and North Texas Soccer Olympic Development Programs. Few who knew Karen could doubt her commitment and passion, her good nature, and on occasion, her flash of Irish temper.

Karen will be sorely missed by all who knew her and we ask that you keep her husband, Mike, their sons, Brian, Brad, Blake and her entire family in your thoughts and prayers as they move forward during this time of loss and sorrow.


Thank you.
