Not sure what to say?

Grandma was a great lady, she always told me to work as long as you can. I remember them visiting us in the country on their way to or back from Florida, Mom enjoyed their visits so much. Now they are together again. Becky (Indiana).

On behalf of the Koch Families, Donna, Dave & Marla, Jana, Ben, Rolland & Janice, Nicole Frances, and myself, I would like to extend our sincerest condolences to all. Flora will be remembered as a kind and sympathetic lady with a ready smile and laugh, and a good friend of our family. Bless her heart and may she rest in peace.

FLora Alt was my Grandmother and an independent thinker in years past. She was always interested in what others thought and was progressive in her ideas about women and society in general. Harry Truman was her favorite president and she appreciated his "The Buck Stops Here" mentality. In her younger years, she loved to travel and enjoyed many trips with family. Her big event was millenium party on Dec 31, 1999. She flew relatives from all over to a hotel in NW Indiana to celebrate 2000...

My Grandma alt was a very kind and generous woman who shared herself with others in many many ways. She was independent, loving, and always curious about the world around her. I will always treasures my memories of growing up around her as a child and her trips to visit me in New York City as an adult. She will truly be missed, thought of often, and remembered lovingly.

Mrs. Alt was one of a kind. I worked with her in the credit union for 16 years and then maintained our friendship long after we left. I used to pick her up the first of every month and we would do her banking and shopping, go back to her place and have some type of lunch. She thought my son, "Mikie" as she would call him, was the best thing since sliced bread. I will always cherish these memories of her and all her wisdom that she gave me. Rest in peace my dear friend. I will see you again.

I will forever remember my very dear Aunt Flo and cherish the memories of my time spent with her. She was a very special lady. We were very fortunate to have her in our lives.
