Brian Patrick Flood

Brian Patrick Flood, age 58, at peace with our Lord on March 29, 2022.  Brian was born to James and Margaret Flood on July 9, 1963, and graduated from Rolling Meadows High School in 1981. Brian was a loyal and dear friend, brother, uncle and cousin. Brian loved all sports, but especially the Chicago Bears and the Chicago Cubs, the World’s Series of Poker, billiards, and darts. Brian was always ready for a game of Spades. He loved music and live events, and was the life of every party. Brian was tough, reliable and generous. He lived large and on his own terms. He was passionate and dedicated to his father, friends and family. From Brian to his friends, “Light one up, crack one open, put your feet up, and cheers!”

Brian was a longtime Arlington Heights, IL resident.

Preceded in death by his parents James Flood and Margaret (nee Courtney) Flood; Beloved aunt Maura (the late Sean) Riordan; Beloved aunt Breda Courtney; Beloved niece Molly Gorman.
