Barb and family; Theresa and I are sorry to see this. You have our deepest sympathies.
I had the privilege of meeting this sweet woman when I met my childhood friend Barbara. Years later, Florence worked in a preschool in Elwood and she cared for my daughter Laura. The first thing that comes to mind when I think of Florence is her sweet smile and loving hugs. Much love and many prayers are surrounding the Acres family in their time of loss.
