Florence Schreiner, age 89, of Clearwater, FL, died June 12, 2014 just 25 days after her husband of 68 years, Warren Schreiner, had passed away. Florence was born in College Point, Queens County, NY in 1925 to the late Max Anwander and the late Bertha Anwander (nee Ernst). She was predeceased by her husband and her sister Dorothy Hendrichs. She graduated from Flushing High in 1943. In 1944, she became engaged to Warren, who, at the time, was a 2nd Lieutenant in the US Army Air Corp. Warren was assigned to the 500th Bombardment Group 73rd Wing as a flight engineer on the B-29 Superfortress the "Pride of the Yankees." After WWII ended, Florence and Warren were married at First Reformed Church of College Point. In June of 1949, Florence gave birth to her first child, Douglas. In March of 1955, she gave birth to a daughter, Leslie Dale. Florence and Warren established their first home in Franklin Square, Long Island, NY. She and Warren would move several times: East Norwich, Long Island; Mendham, NJ; Houston, TX; and finally to Clearwater, FL where she and Warren resided for the last 28 years.
Florence is survived by her two children: Douglas who, with his wife JoAnne, lives in NJ; his daughter Leslie Dale Reeves who, with her husband Robert, lives in TX; 3 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren.
Florence is to be buried at Florida's National Cemetery in Bushnell next to her husband. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you donate to the Humane Society, Florence's favorite charity.
