I was in two of her classes at SJCC, and her knowledge and her ability were both impressive.

Tony, Toni, and all,

I'm so sorry to hear of Aunt Flo's passing! She was a special lady and I know you must miss her terribly. I will ask Jehovah to give you peace and comfort until we see her again, and will keep you in our hearts and prayers.

I met Flo in the 70s and she graciously welcomed me into her home. She was an intelligent and accomplished woman and gave much to her family and students.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the Lovaglia Family
