Obituary
Send FlowersSCHEIDING, Florence Jacqueline "Flo" (Clay), age 87, born in Richmond, Va., resided in Whitehall for 61 years, died Sunday, February 15, 2009. Beloved wife of 64 years to the late Philip H. Scheiding; preceded in death by her parents, Captain Jack and Betty Clay; and sisters, Betty Hamner and Mary Tuck. She is survived by her brother, Horace Eugene Clay; and sister, Pauline Murphy. She was the loving mother of Jackie (Millan) Millan of Valencia, Spain, Reverend Philip H. Scheiding Jr., serving in Mexico, Sandra Lee Scheiding of Whitehall and Shirley S. (the late Bobby Ray) Ferguson of Richmond, Va.; dear grandmother of Monica, Millan-Andres, Cristina, Catalina, Erik, Emily; and great-grandmother of Sara, Vincent and Lucas. Flo worked for Dupont Chemical Co. (Richmond, Va.) prior to her marriage. Thereafter, she was always actively involved in volunteer work: teacher's aide at Spitler School for Retarded Children, substitute teacher at St. Elizabeth Elementary School, charter member of Maxwell Women's Club, a philanthropic community service club, where she held many offices, District 4 (Whitehall) Committee-woman for the Democratic Party, where she worked tirelessly for her candidates. She was a good Christian woman who was completely charitable all her life. The best wife, the best mother, and the best friend anyone could have. She will be missed by all because she was a part of the goodness of the earth. Visitation will be 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. on Tuesday at the Jefferson Memorial Funeral Home, Inc., 301 Curry Hollow Rd., Pleasant Hills.

Flo and my mother became great friends for many years. My mother died on April 9, 2011. My mother, my wife and I went to an evening viewing but were unable to attend her funeral. I miss by little chats with FLo.

My Cousins,
Our heart goes out to you in this time of sorrow. Coming so close to my mother's passing (Flo's sister) we think we know how you feel. Flo was a wonderful person, everyone smiled at the mere mention of her name.
Sending all of our blessings,

Dear Shirley: I never really met your Mother but having Jeff and Chrisa as friends of yours I felt as if I knew her. She must have been a wonderful full of life person and I am sure she will be missed. I hope all the good memories will sustain you through your grieving. Love, Marjorie Engel-Kraus

Dear Sandy and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mother was a lovely woman inside and out. She was always so much fun to be around. She was so kind and caring to all of us who spent so much time at your house. I know you'll really miss her. I'll pray for her and the whole family, love to you all Buttons

Dear Jackie, Philip, Sandy, Shirley and all family,
We join you in grieving the loss of your mother at this time. Aunt Flo was such a wonderful person. As I remember her growing up, she always made me laugh. In more recent years, we will cherish the memories of seeing her and all the family at Momma's birthday celebration and family reunion at Cathy's home in Virginia in 2002. What a wonderful, happy occasion that was for us! Everyone had smiles on their faces. We will indeed treasure...
