We have been good friends with the Flory family since 1936 in Indian Oaks, especially the Indian Oaks Baptist Church. We have seen Cecil develop into a fine mature man and always respected him. Our thoughts and prayers are with Naomi and her family during these times.

Naomi
Words are so hard to find to express sadness for the loss of a loved one except to say I'm so sorry. It has been such a joy getting to know both you and Cecil in our Sunday School class. He knew that my son Mark works for IBM so we talked about that several times. Please know that our class will be here for anything you need and all of your family will be in our prayers.

I knew Cecil many years ago at Lake Worth High School and then at UTA Arlington. Always had good positive memories of Cecil. He has finished his final course. My warmest sympathy to all.

Naomi, I can't begin to tell you the sadness Bill and I are feeling right now. You and Cecil were such good friends to both of us and I'll never forget the times we shared together. I wish we lived next door again so I could be there for you but California is a long way away.

Please know that you and your family will be in our hearts and prayers. We love you and will never forget Cecil! He was a caring, fun man and he loved his family more than most people could know.

We love you, Naomi.

Cecil Flory was such a pleasant person to work with at I.T.S., FWISD. He showed lots of pictures of the home at Angel Fire and told many stories about his visits there. He also bragged a lot on his wife (especially her good cooking)and all of the kids and grandkids. He seemed to enjoy life a lot and especially his family and homes. I know even though you have lots of good memories, you will miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you. I am so sorry for your loss.

Sincerely,
Jerrie Goforth, Secretary to Dirs.@ I.T.S.-FWISD

Naomi, Pam, and Greg our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of loss. Cecil was a good man and uncle. Many miles and many days ago in Lake Worth and Beaumont and beyond there were good times to remember. Cecil treated me well. I remember the first wedding that I went to was a gala affair at FBC LW with a big crowd celebrating with you. God has surely blessed Cecil with a fine partner, with Pam and Greg and grandkids, and eternal life through Jesus Christ. And he also served many others which was the foundation of his success. What a good and blessed life wrapped up in his many years. Reflect and remember the good times with Cecil.

Greg, my Mother always shows me the cards of your fine looking children every year. You must be proud of each one!

May God continue to bless you at this time. Lean on each other and those around you that care for you. There are many Christian friends and family to support you.
