Dr. Carrie and Midwife Sadie May assisted in the birth. Floraine spent her school years in the Ismay school system, graduating from high school in 1938. She spent the next year doing odd jobs.

Floraine and Bennie welcomed two sons to their family, Craig Richard and Roger Owen. After Bennie passed away in 2005, Floraine remained on the farm until 2010, at which point she moved into Quality Personal Care. In 2013 she moved into Fallon Medical where she has lived ever since. She was a true caregiver, spending most of her life caring for various members of her family as they battled medical illness. Faith was very important to Floraine. Floraine was also known as the “Community Grandmother” watching out for all of the neighborhood children. They rarely left her house without a meal or snack. Floraine will be remembered for her warm and welcoming personality that brightened everyone else’s day. Floraine is survived by her son, Roger. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband of 66 years, Bennie; son, Craig; and one sister.
