Florence L. Frost

Florence Frost was born on March 30, 1928 in Boston, MA to Jennie (Marino) and Leo Natale. She passed peacefully at home on January 11, 2023 at the age of 94.

Florence lived a full life, constantly surrounded by family and friends. Her adoring husband Jack was right by her side throughout their 60 years of marriage until his passing in January 2010. As a devout Catholic, Florence started her day by attending Mass. Afterwards, you could find her meticulously working on a new creation at her sewing machine, voraciously reading a book or watching Jeopardy or a Patriots game with a Miller Lite or glass of Bailey’s in hand. Florence was a skilled Black Jack player who thoroughly enjoyed her visits to Foxwoods and Twin Rivers. She also looked forward to playing cards each week at Leisurewoods with her dear sister-in-law, Jean Natale, and at the East Bridgewater Senior Center. Florence was the strongest person we knew and touched everyone she encountered in a special way.

Many are left to cherish her memory, including her children and their spouses: Deborah and Jack McDermott, with whom she lived, Ronald and Christine Frost and Nancy and Paul Montgomery, all of East Bridgewater, and Joanie and Joe LeMay of Sandwich; her grandchildren: Brian and Melissa McDermott, Nicole and Jeff Stern, Kevin and Jenna McDermott, Joseph Frost and Vilma Caslli, Meaghan, Caitlin and Kirstin LeMay and Colleen and Patrick Langille and Erin Montgomery; and her great grandchildren: Colin and Nora McDermott, Abby and Jackson Stern, Kennedy, Cecilia and Peyton McDermott and Victoria Frost. Florence was predeceased by her two sisters and three of her brothers and survived by many beloved nieces and nephews.

The Frost family would like to thank Dr. AK Goodman and her Oncology staff, Chemotherapy Nurse Nicole, the Waltham Interventional Radiology Team, Christine from Anticoagulation Services, Dr. Stephanie Eisenstat, Old Colony Hospice Services and all of the family’s Guardian Angels.
