Jean Siebenaler moved to Florida following her retirement to bask in the warmth of the Sunshine State.
"I finally thought I'd be sitting on the water with an umbrella drink in my hand," she said.

"It's very upsetting, the direction we see Florida heading," she said. "Every day I wonder why I am living here."
