passed away at the age of 92. Florence was born on March 7, 1928, in NY to Nathan and
Rebecca (Carson) Moss. She studied law at Brooklyn College in New York. While working at
Gimbels NYC, Florence met the love of her life - Rubin Grossman. On February 19, 1947,
Florence and Rubin were married and enjoyed 71 years together. They raised one daughter,
Naomi.
Florence was an avid sports fanatic- favoring the NY Yankees and Giants and could name
every player/stat on the team for the past two decades. She was known by her friends and
relatives for her quick wit and spirited conversation. However, what Florence loved more than
the NY Yankees were her three beautiful grandchildren Jonathan (22), Rebecca (20), and
Jennifer (17). During any conversation Florence would tell everyone how proud she was of her
grandchildren and always share their accomplishments that she dearly cherished...then
Florence would ask you to recite them back so she could savor her grandchildren’s stories
again!
Florence was preceded in death by her father Nathan, her mother Rebecca, and sister Irene.
She is survived by her husband Rubin, her daughter Naomi, son-in-law Eugene, and
grandchildren Jonathan, Rebecca and Jennifer.
A funeral service will be held on Thursday, July 9th, 2020 at Schwartz Brothers-Jeffer Memorial
Chapel in Queens, NY at 11 o’clock a.m. Following the memorial service, the burial will be at
Beth Israel Cemetery, NJ.
