Aunt Florrie’ was always a favorite visitor when we were kids living in St. Albans,NY. It was always a fun time when she was there. Then when we were older, the fun continued when we visited her and Roy in Rochester and Greece. She was surely loved by the ’Smith kids’ and will remain in our hearts always. With much love and deepest sympathy to our Hamlin cousins and their families. Hope (Smith) Apollony

I love you, Grandma. I’m sorry that I cannot make it to Rochester. You are in my heart forever and I miss you dearly.
I will miss my Aunt Florence’s poetry. She sent several cards over the years for births etc with a wonderful personal poem. Of course that isn’t the only thing I will remember but it does stand out in my mind.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you Joan and Doug. My thouhts are with you at this time. I will miss seeing Florence coming into the office and hearing her stories of her life and the family. She was a dear, sweet lady and always had a smile and a hug for me. I loved her very much. she touched many lives as she touched mine.
My loving thoughts and prayers will be with all of my family as ‘Our Nana’ is memorialized. She was so much to so many…but she was our Matriarch. Rest in Peace, Nana. I love you, Ellen
