    • According to her sister Francie, "Floy was courted by one of the H. S. teachers (I can't remember his name but I really liked him because he took me with them several times in his car and he always pointed out the horses along the way, calling them cows -- which I, at 3 years of age, thought was very funny) but George McCuistion, who had been her typing teacher, won her and they were married the day after she graduated. Now that I'm thinking of it, I wonder why she was sought after by the teachers!"
