Anyone who knew Flo knows how she loved to sing.

She is survived by sons: Kenneth Giusti Jr and Larry Giusti (Christina) who have three children: Michele Linnertz (Jeff), Jennifer Alvarez (Abel) and James Ellis Jr (Carolyn Ha). Larry and Christina have 6 grandchildren; Florence has one daughter Kathy (Giusti) Svoboda (Jeff). Granddaughter Sarah (Svoboda) Johnson (Austin), and Grandson Harlan Svoboda and partner Ricky Reyna. Florence has her first great-grandchild on the way. She is also survived by several nieces, nephews, childhood friends and new friends alike.
A visitation will be on Thursday, July 25, 2019 from 6:30pm – 8:00pm at the James Crowder Funeral Home in La Marque. A Graveside Service will be held at 10:00 am on Friday July 26, 2019 at Forest Park East Cemetery in Webster, Texas.
Florence was such a kind, beautiful lady. Enjoyed sitting next to her in church because of her lovely voice. So sorry to hear of her passing – may God bless her children and grandchildren.

She was sweet woman. So glad I had her for my Aunt. Bill Tobleman’s kids always called her Aunt Ninx. She was a joy to be around and she will be greatly missed. Heaven’s choir just gained a beautiful voice.
So sorry to hear Great Aunt Ninx passing. Dad (Bill Tobleman) is in hospital and can’t travel. But he says to send the family his love.
Our very sincere sympathy to the entire family. May God grant you grace, mercy and peace.
