Special thanks to cousins Cindy Mason, Pam Tomlin, and Wanda Dagenheart whose concern and help during her illness is much appreciated by the family.

The family also wishes to thank Centra Hospice whose care and guidance over the last year made this time more comfortable for Florence and the family.

Florence was an amazing wife, mother, grandmother, and friend. Her kindness has touched many lives over the years and she leaves a huge void that is not easily replaced. She will be missed by many.
