We are so sad to hear of the passing of Flo. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Flo was always a welcome smile whenever we met at an Oldsmobile Car Show. Even if we only met a couple times a year the visits were always warm and lasting. Her stories always entertained us while relaxing at the car show. Future shows won't be the same without her.
Thinking of you. Your friends North of the Border. Steve, Janet, Laura, Elizabeth and Chris
