Florence J Fortin

In addition to her parents John and Jane Volk and sister Lillian (Raymond) Shallis, she is proceeded in death by her husband, Norman K. Fortin, and son, Jeffery K. Fortin.

Florence is survived by her daughters Jane (Russell) Robbins and Jill (Matthew) Jehn, grandchildren Emily (Oliver) Hautz, Michael Robbins, Braden Jehn and Avery Jehn and great-grandchildren Lelia Hautz, Benton Hautz and Maira Hautz.

A 60-year resident of Minerva Park, Florence thoroughly enjoyed her beautiful flower gardens and backyard birds, especially her little hummers. She took great joy in the fact that she mowed her lawn well into her 80s.

In addition to being an avid reader, she enjoyed going to lunch and visits to the Franklin Park Conservatory and Inniswood Metro Gardens. She cherished family and her home was the family gathering place for all holidays. She was a founding member of St. Anthony Catholic Church and prayed the holy rosary regularly.

Mass of Christian Burial will begin at 11:30am on Wednesday, March 18, 2020 at the Resurrection Cemetery Chapel, 9571 High St. Father Thomas Petry, Celebrant. Due to our recent health restrictions, visitation will not be held.
