Florence McLane, 90, of Manalapan passed away at home surrounded by her family on Friday, February 26, 2021.

Florence was born in Garwood and raised in Menlo Park. She had lived in the Stevensville section of Edison before moving to Manalapan in 1962. Florence was known best to friends and family as Babe and Mom Mom. To her children's friends, they considered her their second mom.

Babe enjoyed cooking, her kindle and arts and crafts; especially crocheting and sewing. Her children/grandchildren will always cherish her homemade cards for all occasions. Along with her husband, she relished in her trips to Atlantic City, especially to the Taj Mahal and also could be found waiting by her front door for Publisher Clearing House to come. Most recently, Florence loved to facetime with family and friends to keep in touch.

A woman of faith, Florence volunteered at the Samaritan Center in Manalapan, Girl Scouts and school. Her selfless generosity was received by many through a motherly hug, a conversation or a place to lay their head. It continued to her end, sharing that all should take comfort in knowing, "I did not die, I'm on the other side. My three greatest treasures were my faith, family and friends."

Florence was predeceased by her husband, A. Leonard McLane in 2019 and a brother, Arthur Fendt, who passed away this past Monday, February 22, 2021. She is survived by her children, Dru-Anne Palaima and her husband, Charles of Freehold, Susan Dodd and her husband, Carey of Freehold, Lori-Anne McLane of Manalapan, Timothy McLane and his wife, Linda of Jackson; grandchildren, Tara-Faith Palaima and her fiancé, Jason Campisi, Dylan Dodd, Nolan Dodd, Brian McLane and Patrick McLane; a great-grandchild, Ashton Parker; her sister, Eleanor Jaros of Manasquan; her life-long best friend, Anna Eosso of Metuchen; and many nieces and nephews.

Visitation will be held at the Clayton & McGirr Funeral Home, 100 Elton-Adelphia Road (Route 524), Freehold Township on Sunday, March 7, 2021 from 12:00 Noon to 3:00 PM with her funeral service to follow at 3:00 PM.
