Laverna and family, I am truly sorry to hear about Florene. I enjoyed our visits and going with her to Oklahoma. She will be truly missed. I loved the stories she would tell. She was a sweet Christian lady and is at her eternal heavenly home. God bless and comfort you and your family.
Florene was such a creative person. As a part of our church craft group she was a bright light to all of us. She also had a sense of humor. She will be greatly missed. Love you and rest in peace.
I am very sorry to hear of Florene’s passing. She was my neighbor in Blue Springs for years. Florene and I have attended library discussion groups at Blue Springs South Library for many years. We will truly miss her at our monthly meetings. I appreciated her friendship, and will remember her smile, friendliness, and kindness. My sincere condolences to your family. Love and prayers for God’s comfort, strength, and peace.
I met Florene when I started leading a book club she attended at the Blue Springs library. Florene was always so much fun to have in book club. I always enjoyed hearing her opinions and reviews on what we were reading – the positive and the negative! We will all miss her very much!
