FLORENCE M. KOUTNIK
“I never thought I’d be around this long,” says Florence, who was born on January 23,
1899. Manitowoc has been her home for almost all of her life. “Things were so different
then – milk was delivered and sidewalks were wooden.” She went to Chicago to attend
“Mrs. Parson’s School of Physical Education” and remembers Armistice Day: “You
couldn’t move, the streets were so mobbed.” She was a kindergarten assistant for several
years and then married Edward Koutnik in 1925.
