Jonesport’s Florence Smith honored on 100th birthday
by Nancy Beal
Florence Smith was born on September 28, 1922. Ninety-nine years and 364 days later, she stayed up until midnight with family members, and when the clock struck midnight, the celebration of her centennial began. It would culminate four days later in a huge “birthday bash,” as she styled it, at which she was honored for both her personal and professional life.
