Dearest Floryne,
We are so sorry to read about your loss. We have such fond memories of the two of you pulling up to Budget Printing Center to visit, especially after you stopped voluteering with me out at HealthPark. To say you are missed is an understatement! You and Norman enjoyed so many wonderful years and those memories will be there to help you every day. We hope one of your children will send us your mailing address so we can write you in person and keep in touch. We love you and you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Cindy and Bob Walker(and Ashley from London, too)
We are so sorry to read of Normans’ passing. Our condolences to Floryne and family. He was always a good friend and fishing friend.

Flo,
So sorry to read about Norman’s death in the ‘News-Press.’ Be well and strong. We knew the strength of your love for Norman. We were lucky to meet him one time.
We will try to send a card too, to the old FM address. We sent you a birthday card there and it was not returned.
We miss you.
Your old Lakewood Ave. and The Club walking partners…
