Florence E. “Bubbles” Watson, 58, surrendered to her illness in her sleep. A life well celebrated, she lived selflessly always putting others needs before her own, even when she had nothing for herself. Bubbles loved to cook and it was known by her collection of recipes. She gave back her love through her delicious dinners and specialty recipes, especially her baked beans which her son, Danny adopted the recipe. Her daughter, Sarah, loved the time they spent together shopping, and Doug enjoyed the hours spent together at night just talking. Bubbles found great comfort with the companionship of her dogs, Charlie and Suzey. She had a tender heart for all animals. Bubbles will always be remembered for her kindness and love of Whitman Sampler candies.
She is survived by husband, Doug; children, Danny Olson , Sarah (Justen Davis) Watson; grandson, James Olson. Predeceased by mother, Dorothy Hardy; father, Wilbert Olson; brother, Levi Olson; special aunt, Ruth McGough.
