Cooking for Friends

11-year resident of Bell Park Tower Florence has lived in Goshen County since she was one year old. As one of 15 children with a mother who often had to work in the fields to keep the family afloat, Florence learned to cook at a young age for a lot of people. 

Today, she is still serving up delicious home-cooked meals, often sharing with the other residents and even the staff at her home in Bell Park Tower.

Florence likes to cook from scratch, and her specialties include many German dishes—among her favorites to make are noodles, butterballs, dumplings, garlic sausage, coffee cake, and German desserts.

She says she “can’t get used to cooking for just one,” and is always happy to share her delicious cuisine with others in the community. Gracious neighbors like Florence make Bell Park Tower a great place to be.
