She was born July 27, 1922 to Charles Madison Mead and Tracy Grace (Curl) Mead near Dunnegan, MO. Flora Belle’s father sought better opportunities for his wife and three daughters, seeking farm work on the richer soils near the Missouri River in Cass County, Nebraska. Flora Belle was a baby when they moved near Union and Murray. She graduated from Plattsmouth High School in 1938 at age 15, attended the University of Nebraska for a semester to earn a rural school teaching certificate, taught country school for a year, and at age 18 married the love of her life, Edward Wehrbein, on October 3, 1940.

Flora Belle and Eddie farmed between Plattsmouth and Louisville. Flora Belle was an active member of First United Presbyterian Church, Goldenrod Study Club (extension), the Order of Eastern Star Home Chapter #189, and a Charter Member of the Cass County Historical Society. She had energy and enthusiasm for special projects, a welcoming heart for any stranger, and lifelong musical talent she shared in church and with the elderly in nursing facilities. Flora Belle was preceded in death by Eddie, her parents and sisters. She is survived by her children Bill Wehrbein (Diane Walkowiak) of Lincoln, Nancy Wehrbein of Lincoln, and Susan Cassat (Jon) of Overland Park, KS; four grandchildren, three great grandchildren, nieces/nephews, and cousins in the Plattsmouth area.
