Steuber, 80, floral artist at local business - The Beverly Review

You were always looked upon to help the family business,” Scot said. “It was like all for one and one for all.”About 10 years ago, due to her health, Carol moved to a townhome in Midlothian, her family said. Another generation of Steubers now lives in the apartment above the shop, and they’re now fondly remembering the family matriarch.After her death, the marquee outside Steuber Florist read, “Mom, We will miss you forever and ever.” A block or so away, at a neighboring Kean gas station, its marquee read, “God Bless Mrs. Steuber. Rest in Peace.”Laura called her mother a selfless woman who was dedicated to her family and put others’ needs before her own.“She always took care of herself last,” Laura said, “if there was time.”Steuber is survived by her husband, Bernard; her children, Bernie A. (Sharon), Scot (Kathryn) and Laura Doody (Randy Deckinga); her grandchildren, Melissa (Paul) Johnson, Bernie, Chelsea and Hailey (fiance Will Givens) Steuber, and Rachel, Erin and Kyle Doody; her great-grandchildren, Landon, Cooper and Johnson; and many nieces and nephews.A celebration of Steuber’s life was held Aug. 14 at Midlothian Country Club with family and friends in attendance.Donnellan Funeral Home handled the arrangements. http://www.beverlyreview.net/news/article_fdeb8974-693f-11e6-8d1f-c79438325b2e.html

Carlene Wells is the founder of Bloomin’ Across Texas.

Her next step followed about a year later when she saw a “for sale” sign on a Pflugerville flower shop.With her mother’s help, Wells said she opened Bloomin’ Across Texas in 1992 as a full-service florist for special occasions, sympathy, gift items and more. Eleven years later, Wells opened a second location in Cedar Park.The business is first and foremost a family affair, Wells said. Her sons have worked at the shop, and when Wells’ father faced a serious illness, Bloomin’ Across Texas became a comfortable gathering location for the family to care for him, she said.Over the decades, Wells said Bloomin’ Across Texas has impacted the lives of other local families as well.
