I met Florence, when she worked at Auto Electric, and I was with their accounting firm (early 90s?). I later learned that her son Ray was one of my CPA review teachers. Oddly enough, I couldn't sleep tonight and, in a quirk of fate, typed in an internet search "Poteau, obituary, and Media." She was such a fine lady and we had quite a few laughs together. I am so sorry for your loss; may memories sustain you. Au revoir, Madame!

Sending my heart-felt sympathy to all of the Poteau family. I have such fond memories of your mom. She was an intelligent, steadfast woman of grace and faith who was an example to many. I have often thought of her over the years with much admiration and appreciation. She was a wise, kind and loving soul. Love to you all.
