With my sympathy. I've known Florence for many years, in the banking world. She will be missed.

I would like to send my sympathies to the family. Florence worked with our bank, First Community Bank and Trust in Beecher as an auditor a number of years ago. I would see her often with Garneta Ehlers in Beecher. My thoughts are with you.
