We met Don and Flo at our winter homes in Roadhaven Resort, Apache Junction, Arizona many years ago. We spent so much time together, enjoying the happy hours and shenanigans that are typical of folks in the youth of old age. Flo was always game for anything that sounded like fun, and loved to play tricks on the neighbours. She was loved by all of us and we will miss her. Our heart goes out to you, Don and we offer our deepest sympathy to you and the family. - Posted by: Pete and Vonda Peterson (Friends) on: May 06, 2014

Flo was a great friend, and we have her and Don to thank for showing us what life is like in Roadhaven, Arizona, where we now enjoy our winters, also it was Flo that taught me the game of golf, should I say tried to. Her and Phyllis spent a lot of time with me. We will truly miss seeing you Flo, and having a glass of wine with you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Don, Sharon and family, she will be truly missed. Love Babs and Jeff xxxxx - Posted by: Babs and Jeff Jones (Friends) on: May 03, 2014
