Flynn as a young man who was born in Jamaica, a small Caribbean Island Country under British colonial rule. This was a time when education in Jamaica was not a priority under the reigning monarch of England. He was considered a part of the Lower Class in Jamaica and with no formal education he invariable became a product of that environment.
Ivan is self taught and he possesses no letters of education, or certificate of any formal academic training. He taught himself life’s skills by watching others; whether it was the driving of a motor vehicle for the first time or operating a million dollar machine at one of the jobs he had during his working career. Nevertheless, he managed to perform rather proficiently in a variety of positions often equal to and sometimes surpassing those with formal training. After immigrating to the United States, he worked for the General Motors Corporation for over 29 years as a skilled machine operator, where he operated dozens of different machines. He also read blue prints, and has done professional landscaping and designs.
He has realized the shortcomings of not having formal education and has sought to help educate and encourage his children and others to be the best that they can be through formal training.
Ivan is a happily married father, grandfather, great-grandfather, church worker, mentor and he volunteers at a local hospital in his hometown.
During this journey, he learned some valuable, powerful, intimate, moral and inspirational lessons that have helped shape his life for many years.
His book is also made available on the following retail channels, please follow the links:
