To Florence's family..... Our mothers spent a couple of months together as roomates in the st-boniface hospital this winter. Flo was such an inspiration for our mom Claire, and they had truly developed a relationship that we will never forget ...from a kinship of emotional support to absolute laughter as they planned their adventurous escape. Nous vous offrons nos sympathies les plus sincères --- Claire, Suzanne, Patricia et Marc Bourrier - Posted by: Suzanne Bourrier (Acquaintance ) on: Aug 28, 2013

Can't believe she followed Maurice so closely. They were such a beautiful couple! When I worked with Florence, she was not only my friend but like a 2nd mother to me. I loved her dearly and she will always have a special place in my heart. My very sincere condolences to all the children and family. I know she will be greatly missed. I'm very sorry that I cannot attend the funeral but I will certainly be there in spirit. - Posted by: Jeannine Porteous (co-worker and friend) on: Aug 28, 2013
