William Frederick Flack of Fair Haven, and Punta Gorda, Fla., and formerly of Penfield, died on July 18, 2008 in Port Charlotte, Fla. at the age of 72. He had battled Parkinson's disease since 1995, and had suffered a series of strokes since 2003.
Mr. Flack was born on Jan. 23, 1936 in Oswego, the son of William McKinley and Marion (Beley) Flack. On April 22, 1957, he married Donna Mae Wright in Oswego.
He was educated at the State College at Oswego, where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in industrial arts education, and the University of Maryland at College Park, where he earned a M.Ed. in industrial education.
He served in the U.S. Navy aboard the aircraft carrier USS Intrepid, CVA-11, stationed in the Mediterranean from 1958 to 1960.
From 1960 to 1966, Bill worked as assistant director of the Education Council of the Graphic Arts in Washington, D.C., and then as assistant education director of the Graphic Arts Technical Foundation in New York City and Pittsburgh, Pa. Bill spent most of his career at the Eastman Kodak Co. (1966-1991), starting as a sales development staff member and ending as director of Personnel Relations, Corporate Staffs. In this work, Bill most enjoyed dealing with problems between people. Upon his retirement from Kodak, Bill taught management courses as an adjunct professor at SUNY Oswego.
He was also involved in community service, participating as a trustee at the Al Sigl Center (for the developmentally disabled) from 1980 to 1988, as a director at Eastman Savings and Loan from 1983 to 1991, and as a member of the Industrial Management Council and the Chamber of Commerce. Bill was also a member of the Antique and Classic Boat Society, and the Century Boat Club.
Bill's many hobbies and interests included taking flying lessons, golfing, boating and cross-country skiing. He most enjoyed building and fixing things, and especially maintaining his two old wooden boats, a 1959 Chris Craft and a 1939 Century. Bill was very proud that the Century won numerous awards at boat shows throughout the northeastern U.S. He was known among family and friends as an amateur artist, painting rural scenes in oils that were based on his own photography, at which he was also an accomplished amateur.
Bill was preceded in death by his parents and his half-brother, Lewis W. Flack.
He is survived by his wife, Donna; two sons and daughters-in-law, William F. Flack Jr. (Deirdre O’Connor) of Mifflinburg, Pa. and Brandon W.
