Paul R. Flack

Paul R. Flack of Solebury, age 95, died August 18, 2022. Son of Nelson D Flack Sr. and Doris Flack Ollinger. Husband of Rita Flack (Fabry). Proud and devoted father of Anne and David (Christine). Beloved PopPop to Ayla Wilson (Tom), Rye Matthews (Hilary), Ginger Matthews, Kelly Flack, and Megan Flack. Great-Grandfather to Leander and Wilhelmina Wilson.

Paul grew up in Doylestown area, attended Hatboro High School, La Salle College, and advanced courses at NYU leading to an associate fellowship in The Casualty Actuarial Society. He was a World War II veteran and then worked at Cigna Insurance Company for 35 years.

He coached many age group divers in the area to national, world, and Olympic diving championships before coaching at the University of Pennsylvania for 10 years. He was an avid collector of Pennsylvania German decorative arts. This passion led to an antique business that lasted for more than 40 years. He enjoyed sharing that knowledge with everyone, especially the friends of the Mercer Museum. In 1983, he purchased Bountiful acres as a family business, now owned and operated by his son, David.

He will be remembered as a kind, passionate, and generous person who loved fishing, golf, and cheering on the Philadelphia Eagles and Penn State. He had a passion for Bucks County History and loved to share that interest with everyone.

His family will receive relatives and friends on Tuesday, August 30, 2022 from 10:30am until his Funeral Service, 12:00pm in the Joseph A. Fluehr III Funeral Home, 241 East Butler Ave. New Britain, PA 18901. His interment will be held privately.
