Joan and Julie, I am so sorry about your mom. I just now found out she passed away. She was always so good to me when I was a child and living there in Oshkosh. She was like my second mom, and after I moved out of state she still cared. She was ALWAYS the first person to send me a Christmas card every year. I didn't get one yet and I was just getting ready to write out my yearly card to her and it made me wonder if she might have passed so I typed in her name and found this obituary. I am so sad that I didn't get to tell her I loved her one more time. But I know in my heart that she knows. My prayers and thoughts are with you all.

We are very sorry for your loss of your mother, Joan and Julie, and your sister, Jerry, and sympathies to all her friends and close relative. I had a nice visit with Florence several years ago at Roger's funeral. Would that circumstances were different and our families had the opportunity to get to know each other better over the years. Best wishes and happy memories. Helen and Al
