Notes |
- “Raised in Baton Rouge, LA, by her single-parent mother, Flo often had to take care of her younger brother, David, and this childhood experience imbued her with a strong sense of responsibility, a protective nature, and a compassionate heart.
“In 1954, Flo graduated from Istrouma High School in Baton Rouge; she was a varsity cheerleader and was named ‘Best All-Around’ senior. She treasured her high school friendships her entire life and rarely missed a class reunion. After attending Southwestern Louisiana Institute (now the University of Louisiana at Lafayette), Flo returned to Baton Rouge, where she met and married Joseph Leslie von Rosenberg, Jr. They lived in Lexington, KY, Corpus Christi, TX, and Austin, TX, before settling in Clemson, SC.
“Flo spent the last three decades of her life on a ten-acre farm near Belton, where she lovingly cared for horses, dogs, and cats. A neighbor once remarked, ‘When I die, I want to come back as one of Flo's animals.’ Flo traveled extensively throughout Europe and the US; she played piano at her church (‘I don't play songs with sharps’); arranged summer jobs for her kids--whether they liked those jobs or not--and she loved to dance. She also enjoyed sitting on her front porch, sipping coffee or sweet tea while she visited with her friends.”
