Remembering
Nora Flynn

1995 – 2021

We Love You, Nora

It is with deep sadness that we say goodbye to Nora Flynn. Nora was bright, compassionate, energetic, and wise beyond her years. In her short quarter century on this earth, Nora touched the lives of so many colleagues at DRP, Craig Lawson & Co., and the City of West Hollywood. She had many devoted friends in her hometown of Naperville, Illinois; at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; and in Los Angeles, where she attended graduate school at USC, launched her career, and put down roots. She was loved deeply by her parents Charlie and Monica, her brother Liam, and her two dogs. Nora knew from a young age that she wanted to be an urban planner, and had dreams of attending law school and practicing land use law. She was passionate about affordable housing, and was always trusted with the most complex cases. Though she was motivated and took her work very seriously, Nora was also lighthearted and was able to see the humor in any situation. She loved chocolate M&Ms, public transportation, traveling, and the K-pop supergroup BTS. No matter what situation she was in, Nora always showed up fully and unapologetically as herself. Her influence is widely felt, and she will be dearly missed.

Donations

In lieu of flowers, the family would prefer contributions to the Women’s Global Education Project. Their mission is to educate girls in Africa with the idea that if they keep girls in school they will be equipped to build a more stable and successful life for themselves, their families, and their communities. Donate here.

Good Times With Co-Workers

Nora, I'll never forget the day when you walked into my office for your selection interview. I can count on one hand the number of planners that I've felt compelled to offer employment after just one interview; count yourself among that group of five. I remember telling Amy "this one is special and we need to get her on board as soon as possible." Little did I know the profound impact you'd have on our DRP family in such a short time. Your love for planning was clearly evident in the quality of your work, your knowledge of the profession beyond your years and how you interacted with both your colleagues and the public you served. You will always have a special place in our hearts. Until our paths cross again.
