Flora and her husband, Charles, had two children, Deborah Alexander and Charlotte Alexander. She loved her family very much. She had two grandchildren, Shakari Gilbert and Niyah Alexander. Niyah's son, Kyrie Bridges was Flora's first great grandchild. She loved Kyrie with all of her heart. Being a wife, a mother and raising a family were such special parts of Flora's life.

Exercising and reading were also important to her. Flora liked to go on nature walks and sit outside feeling the fresh air, as well as listening to the birds singing. Flora loved to read the newspaper every day. She also enjoyed cooking for her family. On holidays, she would wake up early in the morning to begin cooking. Flora also enjoyed going to church. Her favorite flower was a tulip. Traveling to different cities, talking and spending time with loved ones were other activities that Flora enjoyed.
