So sorry to hear of your loss. Flo was always thoughtful and did wonderful things for her grandchildren Kristin and Jessica. Especially when Kristin was battling cancer. Always impressed by her unselfish and enormous amount of gift giving at Christmas time. She will be forever missed. Prayers to the family as they go through this most difficult time.
