She was raised in Iowa. On December 19, 1933, Flossie married John Chance Kalkas Jr. They had one daughter, Sharon K. Christensen of Ennis. They moved to the Gallatin Valley where they worked on ranches. They lived in Belgrade and Bozeman, later moving back to Iowa where Johnnie passed away in 1948.

They were the parents of two sons, Gary Victor and Douglas William, both now residing in Denver. The Callantines had a construction business and ranched in Pass Creek. They later moved to Manhattan where they resided until her husband, Vic's, death in 1987.
Flossie devoted her life to homemaking, her children and her beautiful lawns, flowers and vegetable gardens. It has been said you could have eaten off her floors at anytime because she was so meticulous.
