Anne Floriano, aged 100, passed away on September 21, 2024, in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Born on November 5, 1923, Anne dedicated much of her life to educating others, serving as a teacher in Redding, California, and later at high schools in Sheboygan, Wisconsin where she retired after a full career teaching for over 40 years. Her commitment to education left a lasting impact on countless students over the years.
Anne graduated from Hermansville High School before earning her degree from Michigan State University.
Anne was an avid enthusiast of sewing, ceramics, and later in life quilting, a hobby that not only brought her joy but also allowed her to connect with others in her community. She donated hundreds of baby quilts to Sheboygan hospitals for their NICU and made placemats for Meal on Wheels. She was a devoted fan of the Green Bay Packers.
Anne was preceded in death by her parents, Peter and Ermida Floriano, and her sisters, Frances Johnson, and Lois Bennett. She is survived by her nieces, Michelle Johnson (Dave Hubert) of Irvine, CA, Melissa Rudy (Dave) of Holland, MI, Christine Jurrians (Mike) of Kentwood, MI, and nephews Theodore Johnson (Sue Gonzales) of Costa Mesa, CA, Brian Johnson of Irvine, CA, George Jr. (Rose) Bennett of Utah, and Peter (Julia) Bennett of Grand Haven.
A graveside service will be held at 1pm on Thursday, October 10, 2024, at Nadeau Township Cemetery in Nadeau, MI where she will be interred alongside her parents and aunt Gelinda Vescolani. Those wishing to honor Anne’s memory are encouraged to make contributions to the Sheboygan County Quilters Guild at P.O. Box 783, Sheboygan, WI 53082-0783.
