Dear Bev, Susan and families ,
Florence was a lovely woman who was very independent to the end . I enjoyed her sense of humour and willingness. to do for herself at her amazing age! You girls were amazing in making her last days memorable.

Dear Bev and Susan
I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of serving Florence for the past 4 years at Prince George. She was a wonderful lady that has known me for my 49 years. She never had a bad thing to say about anyone. I still chuckle when she would ask me if there are creatures in the soup.(mushrooms) obviously she didnt like them. She is going to be missed by everyone at Prince George. Hold on to her memories.R. I.P. Florence

Please accept my most heartfelt, sincerest condolences on the passing of this wonderful lady. I had the pleasure over the last 4 years to spend my days in Florence’s presence. She was a wonderful, kind lady whom I will miss dearly. As most know, Florence had a special place in my heart. I knew Florence when she lived at the Market Street apartments, back when I was a kid and would be there running the hallways while I was supposed to be visiting my Grandmas. She remembered me when she moved in here, to that I was not sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing. I do know one thing, she always made me feel special, she always made me feel welcome and she always made time to share a few kind words. I consider myself very lucky to have been able to share a laugh, a smile and a few stories over the past 4 years. Although I know she is at peace, and I would never want her to suffer, she will be deeply missed.
I enjoyed cleaning her suite and on occasion leave her a fresh tomato from my garden when they were in season, or leave her a cartoon, as she did like the funnies.
Please know you are all in my thoughts at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Bev and Shawn Dayman
