Dr. Robert Flanders, MD, 82, of Englewood, Florida, died in his home surrounded by his family on Sunday, July 20, 2008. Dr. Flanders served the Indianapolis, Indiana, community as a physician specializing in internal medicine for more than 50 years before retiring to Florida. Born in Manchester, NH, in 1926, Dr. Flanders attended Fessenden School, West Newton, MA, St. Paul's School, Concord, NH, Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH, and Harvard Medical School, Cambridge, MA. Amazingly, he completed medical school in 1949 at just 23 years of age.

Dr. Flanders received a Certificate of Distinction for 50 years in the practice of medicine from the Indiana State Medical Association on March 1, 1999. Dr. Flanders was a sports fan with a particular love of professional golf and tennis. He was an avid fan of the Indiana University Basketball program and the Boston Red Sox. He was an airplane pilot and secured his pilot's license at age 17. He is one of the few pilots who flew an aircraft under the Amoskeag Bridge in Manchester, NH! He is survived by his wife, Susan Gastineau Flanders; a sister, Mary Flanders Cook; and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Dr. Robert and Mary Straw Flanders; a brother, Charles Flanders II; and a sister, Gretchen Schleyer.
