In Memory Of Florence White (SAMPLE)
I was born in Cornwall, Ontario, Canada on Sep 18th 1922, where I lived my entire life. As you follow my journey below you will learn all about me and get to see my life through my eyes!
As a young girl I went to St. Columban's West School where I only stuck around for a bit, I learned my reading and writing but decided school wasn't for me.
I followed in my families footsteps and joined the Army. I enrolled in Barriefield, ON on Nov 20th 1942. I was placed as a Barrack Orderly for 3 years before I was honorably discharged to return to civil life on Nov 21 1945.
The man who lays to rest beside me was the love of my life; Johnny, we met at a young age and married on the 11th of Jan 1952 in St. Felix De Valois Church in Cornwall. After he passed, I never was with anyone else. I missed him a ton!
Together we had 2 children who I was very proud of; Kenny who is beside me in this photo and Freddy (being the oldest of the two.)
Another one of Kenny and I, this was always one of my favorite photos! I don't know who had longer hair!
Here is Freddy and I, my first born who made me a mother at 25 years old. Freddy for the most part lived in another part of Ontario and always came to visit me. It was always a great time when he came home!
Kenny, Chelsea and I spent many Saturdays together going out shopping, yard work and tending to other duties around the family homestead on Danis Ave. I am glad to see the house is still in the family today!
