We are sad to learn that the world's greatest scrabble player has passed on. Perhaps she and my father can take up again the daily Scrabble games at Salisbury Beach. Each summer when we return to Salisbury Beach we think of Florrie. We will always remember her intelligence, her wit, and her grace.

I am sooo sorry to hear about Florrie. She knitted beautiful sweaters for my son, Jeremy, who is now 21. Florrie was a good friend to my mother, Ann.
I have wonderful memories of all of them at the beach!! With Love, Ricki Shatz-Spry

Oh Dear Florence
I was ever so lucky to celebrate your life while you lived in an assisted living facility. Your wonderful up in arm hand expressions will never be forgotten. Once when you were sent out to a hospital for a fall, I anxiously waited for your return. You did return. I went to find you. You weren't in the dinning area, nor down the hallway, nor outside....the many places you loved to visit. In desperation I went down yet another hallway and caught a glimps of you, standing, in my office, staring at pictures. I said to you in a welcome tone, 'hello". Your response?...."Hello...where you been? I have been waiting for you." I shall miss you my friend. With deep affection...Leanne Buyck, A Friend, from the Pines of Tewksbury

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I have so many wonderful meemories of Auntie Florrie at our holiday dinners and especially of knitting us beautiful sweaters. I will remember Auntie Florrie as always being full of life with a smile on her face.
