A kind and wonderful person - do hope her family's grief is eased by the happy memories she's left behind.
I believe she was our neighbor in the 1950s and 60s. A beautiful woman with a lovely family of boys until their little sister came along. May she and her husband and Terry rest in peace. My parents thought so highly of them. We used to use their basketball hoop and saw them every day for years. RIP - Pat Cunningham ( formerly Middle Village)
Florence was an amazing woman and a devoted friend to my mom, Gladys, for over 70 years. They met in an office in downtown Manhattan where they were both executive assistants. She is at peace and reunited with my mom and beloved family who went before her. Heaven has surely gained another angel.
