I had the pleasure and honor of knowing Flo for the past ten years while living at Las Brisas. She was a treasure and will be greatly missed.

I moved into Las Brisas Apts almost 22 years ago directly accross from Flo's apartment, which I currently am still residing. Flo and I became friends early on and spent many times visiting on our walks around the complex, as she would say "four times around is a mile" and she would often lounge by the pool and chat with tenants. Flo was a very outgoing person and full of energy. I'll miss her smile and visits. She was most proud of her son, grandchildren and great grandchildren. May the family keep memories of Flo alive in your hearts.
