Flossie was educated in the Davidson County school system and graduated from Church Street School class of 1955. After graduation she worked and retired at Carolina Underwear for 20 years. While Flossie was working and enjoying life, she met the love of her life, William Izzard and they married in 1988, and have been in wedded bliss for 34 years.
