Stephanie, Raymond, Christopher, Kathy and your families, I am so sorry for your loss. Florian was a deeply religious man who was kind and loved telling stories about his family. There is nothing that will take away the pain of your loss. "Those we love do not go away, they walk beside us every day." My deepest sympathy.

My parents had bought vehicles from Florian over the years and my dad was good friends with Florian
We had rented farmland from Florian back in the day and we always enjoyed our our visits
Rest in peace Florian
