Florence was born in South Hampton, Ontario. She grew up in a musical family and learned to play the piano, the accordion and the guitar all without a single lesson. Her father played the fiddle and violin and her mother played the organ. She's been a resident in Prince George since the 60's. She loved bowling and won more trophies and medals than she knew what to do with. Flo could often be found at the senior’s centre playing music, a card game, and socializing with friends.
At home, she always had a puzzle on the table ready for people to come over, join in, and help get that thing finished. She loved her senior cat, Luna, who always slept close by. Wednesday's were soup night, where 3 generations would come together, cook, share and laugh. She had a great sense of humor, except when it came to the Blue Jay's losing a game. No pitcher was safe from her disapproval. Florence was unapologetically herself in every situation and we loved her for it. There will forever be a grandma sized hole in our lives that no one can fill.
She is survived by her sister Grace; children Pat (Diane), Debbie, Paul; grandchildren, Deanna (Ray) Amanda (Kelly), Julie (Brendon), Shaileen (Lance), Patricia (Andy); seven great grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.
As per her wishes, there will be no service.
As Florence said "When the tune is gone, the music's finished."
Although the music is finished, we will never forget your songs.
Thank you to all the people who supported Florence in her final years, the kidney clinic, the primary care team and family.
