Florence and Husband, Sol settled in Holmdel, NJ where they enjoyed many years building a strong family bond with their three daughters. They later moved to Ocean Township where they lovingly watched their family grow for the past 37 years. Florie’s greatest pride and pastime was spending time with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Florie loved supporting her family and being present for every celebration and event.
