Flora Jane Notti, infant daughter of William and Alicia Notti, was stillborn June 18, 2008, at Providence Alaska Medical Center. Flora experienced Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome and Selective Intrauterine Growth Restriction.
A service honoring Flora's memory will be at 3 p.m. Friday at ChangePoint Church.
Flora enjoyed dancing with her twin sister in her mommy's tummy. Flora fought hard during her short life. Because of her strength her twin sister is flourishing today. Flora's cousin wrote: "Flora will never be forgotten. She was Lily's hero and will forever be her guardian angel. She fought long and hard until Lily was big enough to survive. While her life was way too short, her gift goes beyond words."
Flora's life brought a special closeness to her family; she will always be greatly missed. We look forward to being with her again someday.
She is survived by her parents, William and Alicia Notti of Anchorage; her identical twin sister, Lillian Nicole of Anchorage; her grandparents, Emil and Rena Notti of Anchorage, Bob and LeNora Kirkman of Sitka, Linda Newton of Anchorage, Bob and Sandy Huecker of Lomira, Wis., and Janice Havins of Wasilla; her great-grandparents, Lillian Huecker of Fond du Lac, Wis.; Bob and Liz Dietz of Roswell, Ga.; Marjie Bukovich of Juneau; Orlin and Grace Fietz of Waupun, Wis.; and many aunties, uncles, cousins and friends.
Flora was named for and preceded in death by her great-grandmother, Flora Peterson. She was also preceded in death by many other great-grandparents who together with Flora have welcomed her into heaven.
Donations may be made to the Providence Alaska Medical Center NICU.
Her parents wrote, "A special thank you to our family, friends and medical team who have provided us endless support during this difficult time."
