Florence Bledsoe Obituary
Sep 21, 1934 - Nov 19, 2024
Huron
Florence Edna (Majoy) Bledsoe, 90, of Huron, passed away Tuesday morning, Nov. 19, 2024, in her home with her furry companion, Maggie, by her side.
She was born Sept. 21, 1934, in Huron to the late Peter and Viola Majoy.
Florence, aka Flo, or if you really wanted to tick her off, Flossie worked a short time at Barr Rubber in Sandusky before following her husband, Wimp, around the world while he was in the service. She was a devoted wife and mother to four amazing children.
Cooking and baking came naturally to her. Local Italian restaurants had nothing on Flo's handmade spaghetti and slow simmered sauce. Gnocchi was a special treat, and you know that she liked you if she offered to make you gnocchi and sauce! If you wanted to make her really happy all you had to do was offer to take her to the casino or to the bingo hall. She was an avid bingo player, going every Tuesday to the bingo hall in Norwalk. If she won at bingo everybody knew not to tell Wimp how much she won because he would want his cut. So if she won $1,000 she would tell him that she won $100 so that she only had to give him $50. It was a running joke in the family. She will be missed by her entire family, and her good friend and neighbor, Jean.
Flo is survived by her son, David (Joanne) Bledsoe of Huron; daughters, Denise Kopke of Huron and Diane (Tom) Simpson of Huron; grandchildren, Crissy, Carrie, Cindy, Randy, Michael, Ryan, Troy, Kelly, Kim, Janay and Becky; 21 great-grandchildren; and 6 great-great-grandchildren.
In addition to her parents, Flo is preceded in death by her husband, Winfield Bledsoe in 2019; son, Randy Bledsoe; grandson, David Bledsoe Jr; as well as two sisters and three brothers.
Friends may call from 4-8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 22, 2024, at Foster Funeral Home & Crematory, 410 Main St., Huron 44839. Last goodbyes will take place at Foster Funeral Home at 9 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 23, 2024, with a graveside service and burial following at 10 a.m. at Meadow Green Cemetery, 2602 Bogart Rd., Huron.

Aunt Flo, there are so many emotions that we go through when we lose a loved one. I have so many fond memories of the many family gatherings, the love I felt as a young person and the care I felt as an adult. Although, time gets away from us and I was not able to see you, those memories will never be erased from me. Tell me Dad and the rest of the clan I love them, I am sure they greeted you with open arms.

Your loving brother David and his wife Barbara Majoy
