Florence was a lady who hardly spoke a word, but would always say "thank you" to anyone who would do the smallest thing for her - even her kids. She was very strong and if she didn't want to do something, you weren't going to change her mind. She was a gentle, kind, and sweet person who loved her husband, kids, grandkids, great-grandkids, brothers and sisters. She tried to teach her kids the same morals and ethics that she always lived by. She was married to the same man for 52 years. They were together until his passing in 2001. Florence had the the prettiest blue eyes and amazing smile! She is now with Dad and the rest of the group, looking down with her blue eyes and the biggest smile.
