December 7, 2020 at 9:09 pmFlorence lived a long and good life. She made a difference in the lives of many people, including my dear Uncle Dave. She has suffered much in recent years. I am so sorry that we can’t be there to support the family on Friday, but so glad that she is in heaven with her heavenly Father. Many prayers and much love to all the family.
