Raised in Girty, Flo attended Elderton High School and lived in the Plumville area for most of her adult life. She loved all the friends she met when she moved to Clairvaux Commons in Indiana. She was a homemaker and enjoyed singing, dancing, feeding her company, and most importantly, spending time with her family. Flo was definitely a people person that made everyone laugh at some of the things she said or did.
Surviving Flo are her children: sons James Lipsie (Alice) of Dayton and Thomas (Julie) Lipsie of Indiana; daughter Jill Elkin(Doug) of Blairsville; granddaughters Jennifer (Joe) Miller of Dayton and Shawnee (Nick) Armstrong of Marion Center; grandsons JR (Erin) Lipsie of Smicksburg, Jason (Kelly) Elkin of Rural Valley, and Justin (Cass) Elkin of Vandergrift; 15 great grandchildren, and one great-great granddaughter, sisters Lois Elliot(Sam) of Creekside and Eileen Stoker(Tom) of Indiana; and a brother Donald (Arlene) Blystone of Vandergrift.
In addition to her parents, Flo was preceded in death by her husband Robert “Pee-Wee” Lipsie.
