Florence was a meticulous record keeper, physically fit, with a capable intellect.

From: Merle Capps Parker, (wife of Florence's youngest son Richard Owen Webb).
Mom was a practical lady, keeping records diligently-whether club, home budget or whatever she felt need it. I don't believe she ever spent money on luxuries for herself, but gave liberally when she saw the need for family or friends. She was very energetic and had various interests; lawn bowling, reading, music, board and card games, gathering with friends and family. She was a good housekeeper and was faithful worker at the Post Office for a number of years. Her life, as I saw it was kept to a routine as much as possible . She walked and exercised as much as she could until her health curtailed it. I know she loved her family and I do appreciate her kindness to me and mine through the years.
From (Betty Jean Parker Mossel, only daughter of Florence)
Good Worker
Very Strict
Very Smart
Good teacher at home and work
Good driver of car and bus
Loved my father
Ready to help anyone in need, especially family
Good daughter to her parents
Very good homemaker
Both parents loved us kids

From: Delbert Lee Parker, (Ed's Nephew, son of Ardie Golden Parker)
One time while visiting Uncle Ed and Aunt Florence's home in California we walked to the restaurant just around the corner from their home and leading the pack was Aunt Florence. We all had trouble keeping up with her. She was in good shape! I remember standing around the piano the day that I met Ann and listening and singing to Aunt Florence's playing. Just a great time. It was always a good time at their home and will not be forgotten!
Del Parker, November 2006

From: Ann Elizabeth Hansen Parker, (wife of Del Parker)
I remember Aunt Florence playing the piano and organ, and everyone gathering around singing all the old songs like "Mellow Mountain Moon"! Whenever I went to the post office in downtown Santa Monica she was always at her window ready to chat for a minute or two. Remember playing "spoons" card game at their dining room table many times.!! She was a very fast walker!!
Ann Parker, November 2006

From: Robert Webb Parker, (second son of Florence)
Mother was the dominant one in the family, she kept all the books, and finances. She was a graduate of Greely State Teacher's College. Was President of California State PTA at one time. Mother drove the cars as far back as I can recall. Her temperament was not as controlled as Dad's, nor as patient. When she had enough of your out of line actions, you were immediately notified by words and a swat. There was enough to warrant her actions with all of us kids. She always rented a big house from the "Sales Family" and it was always big. Mother took in renters and any relation that was in need. At one time there was Ruby, a cousin and her daughter Joan, "Josy Ann", Harold Meyers, renter, Jack Mossel, we four kids and probably others that I don't remember. Resources were not always in great supply, particularly during the depression, there were times when Dad was given the one piece of meat for dinner, the others ate something else. Mother always stretched the food and I can't remember being hungry. She was quite a woman.
Robert W. Parker, November 4, 2006

From: Jo Ann Monroe Parker, (wife of Robert W. Parker, daughter in law of Florence)
Mom Parker was such an energetic soul and able to "multi-task" (in todays language)!
She made several train trips to Texas after Dad died and we always had great fun-glad she got to know our Texas group and we enjoyed her too. She liked to play games and was a fierce competitor. I admired her ability to work so hard to see that her family was taken care of in every way. Also, she passed the Civil Service Test and was able to work many years at the Post Office. She made friends there and had a good life at that time.

From: Susan Parker Lee, (Granddaughter of Florence)
I remember how lucky Grandma Parker was. We went to a Rock show and she won the big prize, a lot of turquoise jewelry which I now have. Apparently, she stopped registering for the door prizes at her bowling club because she kept winning.

I remember her telling me once that it cost $52 for her and the kids to go back to Colorado to visit her parents in the summer. She saved a dollar a week out of her grocery money to dit it. She was a very good money manager.

She was also very strong. Apparently, I decided not to have my face washed. It defeated my mom but Grandma just grabbed, held me and washed my face. My mom learned from her example. One time Grandma came and insited on cooking for us. She made a ton of mashed potatoes. Mom kept saying that seemed like enough but she kept going. Of course it was too much, so she made up for it by filling us up with mashed postatoe donuts, pancake and much more. It was a long week.

One time after Grandpa died, Grandma came to visit bringing an old friend who had been Dad's coach. We played a silly game and he lsot and begin to sulk. Not a good sport. Grandma dumped him after that. She also told me abouit the millionaire who wantd to marry her (smart man) but she didn't want to tie herself down to a sick old man. I remember tooo tthat she always had all these supplements that she took (I'm the one who does now) and that she would sun bathe all the time. I can still sometimes smell the lotion she used but I couldn't tell you the name.

From: Patti Parker Davis, (Granddaughter of Florence)
The out going one, strict-practical.
Cooked and made so many things with ease.
Usually set the table outside with little net tents to protect the food.
One time her pickles or sour kraut she canned started exploding in the basement.
She was so calm.
Her Seaweed candy, white lawn bowling clothes, diaries.
She was a letter writer, a daily exerciser.
Her yellow and white car
Train trip to California with her---we had a compartment/pullman,
white gloves--so proper. I felt like a princess.
This was the world of travel I was not familiar with.
I thought it was wonderful and Grandma made me feel so special.

From: Bette Parker (Granddaughter of Florence)
I remember from the very beginning being told by Grandma that we shared the same name of Florence. Although I just really didn't like that name as a child, as an adult I found that with that name came strength, joy and determination. All the words I would use to describe Grandma.

I remember her teaching me how to use Comet to clean out a sink and her telling me to use "elbow grease" and her falling on the floor with laughter when I asked her where she kept the "elbow grease"!

On one trip to California she taught me how to make "finger curls" in my hair and helped me pin my hair so that they would stay in. Addie and I thought we were so pretty with our hair all curled up!

I remember her cooking and preparing food for all of us and the laughter that always found its way out of the kitchen and to the ears of everyone in their home. I know that much love went into each thing she did for her family and how hard she worked for it.

After Grandpa passed away, Grandma would come to Texas and we would, once again, see the sights here. I loved getting on the living room floor and exercising with Grandma every morning and being so impressed that woman her age could do those exercises! When she would leave us at the train station Pattie and I would stand there crying, and she took up the tradition of Grandpa's "Everything's going to be O.K." sign to us.

With both of them, (Grandma and Grandpa) the feeling of joy and thanksgiving in their precious family was conveyed to us in their acts of everyday living. To this day it still astounds me how these feelings were transmitted, many times, without words ever being said. I feel so deeply grateful that their influence imparted many of these gifts to my life.
