DANNIE “DEWEY” FLANNERY
Dannie “Dewey” Flannery 54, of Fairfield, Ohio, passed away quietly at Mercy Health Fairfield surrounded by his loving family on Monday, November 1, 2021.
He was born in Rushville, on September 5, 1967, son of the late Dannie W. Flannery (Sue) and Karen Frankle. He is survived by his son, Tyler Flannery. He is also survived by sisters Kim (Jewell) Grunkemeyer (Glenn) of Greensburg, Lori (Flannery) Lanham (Mike) Morris Hill, and brother Donnie Flannery of Sunman; along with several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his father Dannie W. Flannery, paternal grandparents Ben and Nora Flannery, aunt Janet (Sue) Dole, uncle Jerry Flannery and cousin Benny Flannery.
In addition to being raised by his family, Dannie was always supported by Kathy (Flannery) Amburgey and the late Delza Amburgey Jr.
Since Dannie lived with Kathy and Junior for several years, this gave a sibling-like relationship with his two cousins, Tammy Heyser and Tonia Hanson, and they formed a strong sibling bond.
Dannie graduated from East Central High School in 1985. After graduation, he went into the trade of plaster/drywalling where he was the entrepreneur of Flannery Drywalling.
His hobbies included bowling, fishing, hunting and his avid love for softball. He was also a lifelong Dallas Cowboys and IU basketball fan that regularly attended games.
He lived a very simple life but loved by many.
Visitation will be Saturday, November 6, 2021 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. followed by 2 p.m. funeral service all at Meyers Funeral Home in Batesville. Rev. Jake Flannery officiating.
We will be holding a benefit in his honor on Sunday, Nov 14, at The Dive Bar and Grill in Sunman, at 11am. All proceeds will go toward his final resting expenses and anything above that will be given to his son Tyler Flannery.
