Florence spent her life farming and ranching. She was active in the communities where she lived, sitting as a member of the United Church Board, working on various History Books, involved with Big Muddy Tours, the Deep South Care Home Board and many other organizations.

She had a passion for horses. Playing music and singing always brought her great joy. Over the past few years, she became a master of word-find puzzles, and an enthusiastic viewer of curling and baseball games. She will be missed by all who knew her.
