We pray that the family will be comforted in their time of loss. However, again, we hope and pray that hearts will be warmed with memories and that all will embrace her passing with prayers of thanksgiving to have had such a lady of character in their lives.  Sister Flo's walk left us with such a great example of grace, inner beauty,  and strength.  The Crokers feel privileged to have known Flo and Jim.

Our family loved Florence and always felt so blessed by her hugs and laughter. She was one of my dad's (Melvin McCoy) favorite cousins. He would refer to their childhood days with very fond memories. We always looked forward to seeing them.  She and your dad were such great Christian people that we all admired. I know that God is holding you very close to his heart during this time of great loss.  He will give you strength.  Love and prayers for your family, Dwylene McCoy Strother

Florence was so special to me. Her precious sweet smile always warmed my heart, as well as, her cheerful kind spirit. I will miss her dearly. I have such fond memories of her. God bless you all until we meet again.

To Linda, Barbara, and the remaining family, our hope and prayer is that God will give you peace and reconciling grace.  Aunt Flo is remembered with so much love.  We were blessed to know, be near, and be loved by such a wonderful lady.  God be with you in the days to come.

What precious memories we treasure of our cousin whom we called "Aunt Flo"!  She was a lady full of love and fun and wisdom.  We were often privileged to experience the warm hospitality of the gracious home she and Uncle Jim made together and opened freely to the family, friends, and church members who were blessed to visit there. We count ourselves very blessed to have known and loved her. May God be praised for her life of love and giving to others.

In loving memory of our beloved Flo. She was always there for us and our family in more ways than we can number. We are thankful that her earthly ills are now over and she is resting in the everlasting arms of God.  

To her beautiful family-- we know you have the greatest loss. May God grant you peace in the wonderful memories that you have and the love from all that your dear mother touched during her long life.

We will sorely miss our precious cousin, but our memories of her and Jim in our home lots of times will bring us comfort for many days to come.  Her little body is resting but her spirit is alive and well!!! Isn't that a wonderful truth! 
My love and sympathy to Barbara, Linda, and all the family.  
We loved Flo then and will love her still....always....until we meet again.

Dearest Aunt Flo, You will never know the impact you had on my life. You are a woman that every woman should aspire to be. Thank you for the unconditional love you showed me. I love you so much, and I will miss you terribly.

I will always consider Sister Flo as a mother figure.  She taught me so much about life, family and faith.  I love her dearly.

Flo was always so much more than my mom's secretary during her many years at Arlington Chiropractic Clinic--she was like a family member. I remember her as always being genuine, comforting, and very creative. My mom, Dorothy R. Jones, loved Flo dearly. We lost Mom this past December--I know she and Flo are busy "catching up". My sincere sympathy to the family.

Our love and heartfelt sympathy to Linda, Barbara and the entire family at Flo's passing.  She and Jim were the example, the inspiration in how we should love each other and serve the Lord.

Linda - these past few years, you have honored your mother and father in the love and care you have provided her.  Such a tremendous burden to have been assumed so lovingly and given of yourself.  Be comforted in the knowledge that your efforts are pleasing unto the Lord.  May be grant you reconciling grace as you mourn her loss.

Barbara - all our love to you and your family.  Much the same way Linda has given of herself these past few years, you did the same for your father and mother in past years.  They were both so incredibly special to so many people.  May the Lord give you and your family grace as you mourn their passing, but an understanding that they are in the Lord's presence, in eternal perfection.


Love,
