Florence E. Mauzey passed away Monday, April 30, 2007. She was born March 26, 1928 in Atchison, Kansas, daughter of Charles T. and Dorothy F. (McNemee) Hicks. Florence lived in Leavenworth, KS until she was two years old. At this time her father passed away and she lived with relatives until the age of 15, when she started living on her own. She had several jobs in Atchison during this time including candling eggs at the former Wilson Poultry Co. and working in the dining room at Mount St. Scholastica.

At Christmas she would make hand made candies to give to family, friends and neighbors.
