RIP Flo. I will miss seeing you as I walk by your place. Fly high miss Flo

We have been neighbors for quite a few years and then became friends after I finally got dog, Babaloo will miss his Grammie Flo and his evening treats, I will miss a dear friend whom I came to love.

Florence was very kind to me. I met her when I worked at the newspaper. It was my very first employment.

Jackie, please know that lots of people are thinking about you and your family at this time. I remember meeting you Mother some time ago and how vibrant she was with a big smile. Peace and love. We are all thinking about you.

I wish I could be there for you! You have so many friends in Danville that are praying for your peace. Love,

Grandma Flo...Tanner & Tessa will miss you as we all will. You were always so thoughtful to our kids and we loved you so much. Love and will miss you, Chris Brendan Tanner & Tessa

Jackie we are so sorry for your families loss. We know that your mom will be truly missed and that she had been a blessing to your family. Our prayers are with you and your family.
In Prayer, Lisa and Nick Argyrakis Danville, Virginia

Florence was my neighbor for 13 years and one of the kindest, most compassionate women I know. My condolences to her family, you are everything to her.
