Florence M. Aubuchon (nee Huber), age 95, fortified with the Sacraments of the Holy Mother Church died peacefully July 24, 2024. Preceded in death by her beloved husband C. Duane "Duke" Aubuchon, son Dr. Craig Aubuchon, parents Harvey and Emma (Gerringer) Huber, and her only brother and sister-in-law Norbert and Margie (Moore) Huber. Loving mother and mother-in-law of Christiann Aubuchon of St. Louis, MO and James Aubuchon (Pamela Phillips Aubuchon) of Hickory, NC, and Karen Pohl Aubuchon of St. Louis, MO. Cherished by her seven grandchildren and their spouses Dr. Adam (Jenna Mory Aubuchon), Jason (Natalie Heutel Aubuchon), Kaitlyn (Cara Matthews), Brian (Catherine Lienhart Aubuchon), Kathryn (Michael Moran), Stephen (Sophie Ojile Aubuchon), and Lindsey (Lane Johnson). Adored by her ten great-grandchildren Dylan, Ryan, Evan, Morgan, Natalie, Jennifer, Jack, Madeleine, James, and Jordan, as well as by her five great-grandchildren on the way. Beloved aunt, cousin, and friend to many.

Florence was born on her family farm in Perryville, MO on July 5, 1929. She courageously moved to St. Louis with her best friend after graduating high school in 1947. In 1951, she met her future husband Duke at a dance. Duke proposed via letter during his time serving as a Marine Staff Sergeant in Korea. During their 56 years of marriage, they moved nearly twenty times, ultimately moving back to their favorite city, St. Louis. Florence and Duke effortlessly made life-long friends in each new place they called home. Florence loved to laugh with friends and family, to entertain and cook for others, and to share her love of family history. Florence was loved by all who knew her, and will be greatly missed.
