Florence Michie Stahl Lifelong Grosse Pointe Farms resident Florence "Flo" Stahl, died Friday, Feb. 13, 2015. She was 85. An avid reader, gardener and history buff, she was drawn to the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House, where she worked as a docent for many years. Often requested for her historical knowledge, quick wit and warm personality, she enjoyed giving tours of the home until the time of her death. Mrs. Stahl was active with the St. Andrew's Society and served as its first female president. An active member of Grosse Pointe Memorial Church and past deacon, her faith was best captured in her thoughtfulness, concern and compassion for others. Mrs. Stahl's greatest joy was her family and they said she never missed a family event. Her sparkling personality brought joy to the celebrations and holiday gatherings she attended. She was positive and upbeat: her glass was never "half full," but overflowing with optimism, wisdom and love. She spent her 65th, 75th and 85th birthdays in Bermuda with her son and his family, providing them all with lifelong memories. She had planned to spend March in Vero Beach, Fla., with a group of Grosse Pointe ladies she had known most of her life and with whom she had traveled annually for several years. Mrs. Stahl is survived by her son, Greg Stahl; daughter-in-law, Melanie Flynn; grandchildren, Christopher, Timothy and Katherine Stahl and numerous friends. She was predeceased by her husband, Harry; parents, Alexander and Mary and brothers, Don and Neil. She will be deeply missed by those who knew her. A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 28, at Grosse Pointe Memorial Church, 16 Lakeshore, Grosse Pointe Farms. Donations may be made to Grosse Pointe Memorial Church, 16 Lakeshore, Grosse Pointe Farms, MI 48236.
