We are all so saddened at your mom's passing. It was such a pleasure to know her and to have been able to work with her at EA. She was smart, funny and passionate about so many good causes. She will be missed. Our time with Flora will always be fondly remembered.

Dear Lee family--Great picture of Flora. It was such a privilege to be across a table from her on many occasions. She taught me to slow down and enjoy the company of good friends and good food. Lee and I will truly miss her!

Warmth, laughter, firm opinions on what she liked -- especially in books, and an elegance that was simply Flora. To say I admired Flora is only half the story. She had a way of making everyone feel special and welcome in her world.
Several years ago the book club held a meeting up in Willits at Cinda and Holger's. That weekend we all went blackberry picking. When we got back to the car, Flora in her heeled city boots commented "I touched nature" with a smile that could light the world afire. To this day I can't even think of blackberries without thinking of Flora.
I shall miss you Flora.
