for over 20 years. In 2001, Florence had attended a Women’s Division event where she learned about the Lion of Judah Endowment program from Mikki Futernick, the program’s founder. “This concept of perpetuating our values and our charitable support of the Jewish community was something that resonated for us. We became Forever Pacesetters through a gift of life insurance, years before it was even called that,” Bob added. Florence will be forever remembered by friends and family as an elegant, gracious, charitable and kind woman whose warmth made everyone smile. Her spirit is carried on by her four children, Beverly, Marc, Michael and Ronald, 10 grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren (with the eighth on the way, G-d willing!) and extended family and friends who deeply cherished her. Through the Florence J. Werner Lion of Judah Endowment fund, Florence’s philanthropy and Jewish values will continue in perpetuity.
