Rest in peace, dear sweet Florine. You always made me laugh whenever I took communion to you at your Prairie Vista home, and at least once or twice I made you giggle. For that and for your sharp mind, gentle soul and colorful memories of growing up in a large farm family near Milo, I am grateful. Amen, amen.
