Vertis and all family members, I would like to offer heartfelt condolences to you all upon the loss of LaFrancina whom I knew as a classmate at Melrose High School. We had many enjoyable days at school and walking home and joking around with friends along the way. She was smart, friendly and of course she had the singing voice of a songbird. It was a pleasure meeting and knowing her. May God bless, heal and protect your family during this challenging time in your lives!

How sad I was to learn of the recent homegoing of my dear Melrose Class'66 classmate, LaFrancine Sails! She was always such a friendly, compassionate, and beautiful person -inside and out. Every memory that I have of her is enhanced by her beautiful smile and sincere concern for others. She is a lady who will be dearly missed by all of us. Her family is in my sincere thoughts and prayers. May the Lord grant them the strength they will need in the days ahead. Sincerely, Sandra C. Hamilton
