She currently resided in Colorado Springs, but had spent 54 years as a successful business women along with Rufus, her husband of 63 years, in Grand Junction. She joined her daughter, Cheryle Hutto, in Atlanta, Georgia. They spent the last six years together as Cheryle enjoyed helping her thru her last year’s by providing her with a beautiful life. Where she most enjoyed her fairy gardens and decks as she visited with passersby and neighbors.
Her life in Grand Junction was in retail, Real Estate, and Home Building. Gardening was her real love and a way to relax and let down after a busy day. Rufus and Florence enjoyed the mountains of Colorado with a mountain home just below Blue Mesa Reservoir where they spent much time both building it and just living in it. It was a wonderful magical place for family to play, go four-wheeling, and fishing. And we all enjoyed it greatly.
