Guinness PubFinder Ad

Flynn’s awards are many. He was Irish America magazine’s Irish-American of the Year in 1995, and in I999, was selected by same magazine as one of the greatest Irish-Americans of the century. That year, he was also the Grand Marshal of New York’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade.

His ties with Ireland remain as solid as ever – every times he visits Ireland, he once told an interviewer at the Sunday Business Post, he visits his paternal relatives in the Mourne Mountains, in Co. Down.

He is married to Peg, and has three sons, one daughter and 11 grandchildren, and lives in Long Island, New York.
