To the family of Florence Woods--I am so grateful to have known your mom and grandma since 1975. She was one of the first ones whom I started to know before I became a member of Maize Manor and still am today.

There have been many of her friends from Maize who have gone before her and she is now surrounded for the rest of her days with our Heavenly Father and those friends she hasn't seen in years.
