Florence Brownlee

Fargo, N.D.

Florence Christine Brownlee of Fargo went home to heaven, surrounded by family on Aug. 31, 2024.

She was born in Beulah, N.D., on Nov. 4, 1925, to Daniel and Elizabeth Pfennig.

Florence impacted everyone who knew her. She loved to have fun and be teased by her grandkids, and never considered herself too old to do anything!

She had great faith in God, and that carried her throughout life's ups and downs.

Florence, "Gram," was loved and will be missed by many.

Florence was preceded in death by her parents Elizabeth and Daniel; husband, Red "Gramp"; son and daughter-in-law, Jerry and Terry, son-in-law, John, and granddaughter, Jennifer Jill.

Florence is survived by one sister, Betty; daughters Wilma (Elden) Stenseth and Brenda Thurn; sons Brian (Barb) Trauman and Jim Trauman; grandchildren Scott (Carolyn) Stenseth, Christy Stenseth, Carrie Stenseth, Jamie (Rena) Stenseth, Jeff (Sheri) Trauman, Ryan Trauman, Sarah Witt, Darren (Amy) Modin, Tracy (Adrian) Mangone, Elizabeth (Maulik) Dabhi, and 18 great-grandchildren.
