Florence was one of our best friends. I have known her for 65 years. It was a pleasure to work for her and to know her. Her sense of humor was wonderful and her charitable acts many. We will certainly miss her.

Dear Bob and family,
Florence was such a beautiful lady, inside and out. She loved her family and talked of them often and bragged about their many accomplishments. She was so proud.
It has been our good fortune to have known and cared for this lovely lady for the past few years. She was wise and witty and I was forever learning new things from her. She will be missed at Summerwood. LaVerne Sadowski ALSA RN Case Manager

In 1969 I moved into Gaslight Village in Bloomfield acrossF the hall from Julia Hasenfratz, the most wonderful woman who became my friend. I met Florence there. Many, many years went by and Florence and I reconnected on the internet. We had many pleasant conversations and swapped some jokes. I live in NJ now and cannot make the funeral but want you to know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. She too was a wonderful woman.
