Burt,Rick and Ira. We were so sorry to hear about Florie's passing. I have such great family memories of great times in New London when I was a kid. Your mom was always so good to me and my husband when we were first married and living in New London. I loved to visit her and Charlotte during the week when they made such a fuss over me.
I will always remember her.,
Love Susan
