      Floretta F. Lawrence, 78, of 6002 Cart Path Road, Sheboygan, died at her home of Lou Gehrig's Disease, Monday, March 20, 2000.

      Floretta was born Oct. 8, 1921 in Eae Claire, Wis., to Charles and Maude (Kerr) Heidemann.

      She was married to Willard J. Bassett in Eau Claire, Wis., who preceded her in death. In 1957, she married Richard H. Lawrence. The couple resided in Adams County, for many years. Mr. Lawrence preceded her in death in November 1978.

      In November 1998, she came to Sheboygan to be close to her family, who cared for her during her illness. Floretta was a member and past president of the Adams County Memorial Hospital Auxiliary and Order of the East Star, Quincy Chapter #177, where she held several offices.
