Florence graduated from Northside High School in 1957. In June 1960, she married the love of her life, Stephen J. Morris. She worked at Corning Credit Union, retiring as a head teller after many years of dedicated service.
Florence cherished her monthly luncheons with her fellow retirees, winter travels to Florida with her husband, and quality time with her daughters and grandchildren. She never passed up a shopping trip. Known for her strong personality and unwavering work ethic, Florence instilled those same values in her family.
She is survived by her daughters: Ann Marie (William) Rauscher of Farmington, NY, and Michele (Dale) Lindsay of Victor, NY; grandchildren: Kathryn Rauscher, Anthony (Brittany) Sofia, Christopher (Quynh) Lindsay, and Cameron Lindsay; great-grandchildren: Jack Sofia, Charlotte Sofia, and Gordon Lindsay; niece: Michele Delorenzo; nephew: James Delorenzo; and sister-in-law: Joni Delorenzo; best friend; Linda L'Amoreaux.
In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her brother, James Delorenzo.
