Colette Janeen Baracker-Flynn passed away on Monday, May 22, 2023, at the age of 52, surrounded by her loving family and many friends. The pain of her absence will be felt by so many people who loved her dearly.

She was born on March 16, 1971, in Whitefish to Jerry and Sharan Baracker, the fourth of five siblings. She graduated from Whitefish High School in 1989.

She married Tim Flynn in 2012. They shared remarkable generosity and love to a large circle of family and friends. They loved traveling and entertaining. Wherever their boat was in world, they would always invite people to join them. They had two beautiful homes in Las Vegas and Whitefish, and their doors were always open to host weddings, baby showers, golf tournaments and parties for every occasion. So many joyful memories were made!
