Florence was a wonderful help to me when I began teaching at Elm Street Junior High School in 1960. She had such a great smile and a wonderful sense of humor. She was a large part of the welcoming atmosphere of the school. I am very grateful for the time I was able to be a colleague of hers.

She was such a sweet and kind lady! Mrs. Shober worked in the front office when I was a young new teacher there. She was always so professional and helpful.

So sorry to hear about Mrs.Shober. I knew her from the Church of the Brethren when I was very young. We knew all the family and mom had Sunday School with her before she got I'll and couldn't go. Mrs. Shober made some beautiful clothes. My prayers are for the family at this difficult time. God bless! Donna Yinger Heffner
