816. Memories of Florence Hansen, a sculptress, dear friend, and amazing lady!
This dear lady was a very good friend of mine for many years! She passed away on Friday, Feb. 10th, 2017. She was so well known for her beautiful small statues, and also some large statues in the "Monument to Women" garden in Nauvoo, Illinois. When we moved to Sandy, Utah, in 1962, where we lived for 19 years, she was my first Visiting Teaching Companion. I grew to love her immediately. When I taught a class for teenagers about genealogy, and their own Family History, her son Chad filled out a Family Group Sheet showing 5 children. If you notice in the obituary, they were able to raise only this one choice son, the age of my oldest son. They had 4 babies die right after birth! I don't know reasons, only that she once told me the reasons were unrelated. She and her dear husband continued faithful, gentle, and gracious all their lives!
