Dear Judy and family,
I was so sorry to hear of Auntie Flo's passing. I will always remember her as a sweet and kind hearted lady who always had a smile on her face. I know this time is very difficult for you. Just remember that now she is up in heaven sitting next to her beloved husband and holding his hand.

Thinking of you,
Pam Schueler and family
