Larry enjoyed camping with the family in his younger years, fishing and hunting. He and Marian wintered in Florida for a number of years and enjoyed those times. Flip truly enjoyed his weekly card playing with his poker crew. They would usually play poker, eat well with a few drinks, share stories and jokes, and argue like “heck”. They were real buddies. He was preceded in death by four siblings, Kenneth Flaminio, Donald Flaminio, Jean Paoli, and Geraldine “Sis” Perucco. Flip is survived by his loving wife of 59 years, Marian; three children, Scott (Lyn) Flaminio, Tom (Vicki) Flaminio, and Kathy Flaminio (Brian Henes); one sister, Noreen Gussert, four grandchildren, Tony (Theresa) Flaminio, Cory (Whitney) Flaminio, Jamie Flaminio, and Nicole (Dan) Menard; three step grandchildren, Andrew (Becky) Olson, Michael (Ashley) Olson, and Sarah (Josh) Swope, nine great-grandchildren.
