Flo graduated from Flemington High School in 1958. She then relocated to the area in 1972. She was retired from Walnut Hills Nursing Home after 21 years of service where she gave such personal and compassionate attention to her residents.

She was a woman of great faith and was a member of Church of New Hope. Flo enjoyed reading the Bible and being in a witness to the Lord. It was her wish for everyone to be saved in order for them to make it to heaven.

In her spare time she enjoyed quilting, crocheting and making afghan blankets. She also enjoyed dancing, as well as square dancing, golfing, playing table tennis, riding motorcycles, gardening and tending to her yard.

Most of all Flo enjoyed spending time with her family and friends and always displayed great passion and love for everyone she encountered.
