Florence Henrietta (Rybicki) Jolly, 85, passed away peacefully on Saturday, September 22, 2018 surrounded by her loving family.

Flo, and her husband Al, retired to the Jersey shore in the Four Seasons at Wall community where she was active in numerous clubs.

She also received a certificate of appreciation from Mercy Center in recognition of her efforts organizing and collecting clothing donations. She was an active member of St. Denis Church in Manasquan. Flo enjoyed a good party with her dear friends. She loved organizing “Polish night” at the clubhouse where you would find her dancing to polkas and singing along to “Sto lat”. She also loved dressing up for Halloween parties and performing in the “amateur night” dance shows. Flo was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother and nothing made her happier than having her family together for dinner. She was a special person who will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
