To know Flossie was to love her. Within a moment, you knew her character and had a glimpse into her soul. From the time she was little, her life was a House of God evidenced in her numerous thread-bare Bibles to whose words she adhered well. Never idle, she served countless organizations. Flossie's love for animals extended far beyond domestic breeds, embracing all God's creatures of land, sea, and sky. Flossie lived life to its fullest in spite of her handicap because of her father Axel's encouragement. She will be remembered for her gentleness and sweet smiles...occasionally coupled with a wink.
