Florence E. Wheeler (nee Hall), 99, of West Chester, PA, passed away peacefully at Paoli Hospital, on November 8th, 2025.

Born on February 19th, 1926 in Philadelphia, PA, she was the daughter of the late Arthur, and Ebba (nee Riiser) Hall. She had an older brother, Felix, and 6 younger sisters, Betty, Mary, Eleanor, Peggy, Elaine, and Pat. Her sisters fondly called her sis.

She is survived by her four sons: Norman, wife Jun, Vincent, Bruce, Donald, and sisters Pat, Peggy, and Elaine. Grandchildren: Andrew, Aubrey, Hejin, and recently became a great-grandmother to Marissa on October 21st, 2025. Also survived by many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her husband of over 75 years, Norman Wheeler, three sisters, and a brother.

Mom loved her T.V. shows. Some of her favorites being "Little people, Big World", "Shark Tank, "Americas Got Talent", "Penn and Teller", "The Voice", and many more. She loved to read and would exchange books with her friends at Bellingham. She will be dearly missed by her family and many friends at Bellingham Senior Living. She loved going to dinner with her friends there.

She enjoyed roller skating, and met husband Norman, at Chez Vou skating rink, in Upper Darby, PA. In earlier years she and Norman enjoyed going on many trips, to the Casino, and various sites in the area. She always enjoyed the sunshine, and was an avid beachgoer. Along with the family, she spent many summers at our beach home, in Cape May, NJ. After retirement and until their late 80's, she and husband Norman enjoyed vacationing in Florida during the winter months. They also enjoyed their beloved Bichon Friese, Ginger. She and husband Norman loved to ride their bikes, up into their late 80's. Even in her late 90's, she loved to sit outside Bellingham, in the sunshine.

She instilled many wonderful life-long lessons and tenets in her four boys. She was a resilient lady, and nothing really bothered her, much like her mother was. She died peacefully, and had no regrets about life.
