Florence Favreau (Shields) age 88 of West Milford passed peacefully on Monday, June 27, 2016.
She was born and raised in the Paterson area. She then lived and raised 3 children in Midland Park. She moved to the Florida Keys for a brief time and then returned to New Jersey residing in Toms River. For the last 5 years has lived in West Milford to be closer to family.
Florence worked as a legal secretary for Dan Kamp, Esq. in Midland Park and later worked as a home health care aid. It was during her work as a health care aid that she met Raymond Favreau while caring for his mother. Florence and Raymond fell in love and have been married for over thirty years.
Those who know Florence knew she was full of energy and generally the life of the party. She was always the one who started and ended just about every conversation. She was always attentive to having her hair and nails just so and when she heard her granddaughter Christine and daughter-in-law Teri got shamrock tattoos she went and got her own too when she was in her 70s. Her children fondly remember family camping vacations and only recently learned that Florence didn’t like to camp at all but did it for the love of her children. Florence loved being with her grandchildren and found great joy in all their accomplishments. She was also known as the cool grandma with her tattoo and toe ring.
Florence was the loving wife of over thirty years to Raymond Favreau; devoted mother of Bill Nichols and his wife Claire of Ringwood, Donald Nichols and his wife Teri of HoHoKus and Chris Nichols and his wife Mari of Maryland; cherished grandmother of Christine and Steven Nichols; dear sister of the late Robert Shields (June 13, 2016) and his surviving wife Linda, Lorraine Hopf of Florida, Marilyn Nichols of Midland Park, and Evelyn McCoid of Plainfield.
In lieu of flowers memorial donations to Saint Jude Children’s Research Hospital, PO Box 1000, Dept. 142, Memphis, TN 38148-0142 would be appreciated.
