We´re sorry for the loss of "Flossie". Our Moms, along with Polly, became friends around 1963, when they worked part time at Allen Organ. When your family came to the cabin, we had so much fun. So much laughter and were/are so fond of each other. Your parents made us laugh, and in later years had cute (funny) nicknames for our children & niece. I can still hear your Mom say "Dough balls" - a favorite breakfast food - and "Kenneth"! When she might have been scolding him. Lol Whenever we´d see Flossie over the years, we had good conversations. And she would get sad for missing my Mom. We are so fortunate to have been as close as family over the years, with so many very fond memories. Sending hugs to all of you, on behalf of the Walbert family. Linda & Les Haberstumpf

Mom (Nana Flossie), We knew this day would come. Just not ready to let go yet. We'll cry because we'll miss you. We will laugh at all or fond memories. Just know you taught us well. We'll make it through our sadness and be stronger having known, loved & cherished you.
With all our Love: Dave, Teresa, Katrina & Hailey
