I am sad that Frances has died. She was very special to me and my whole family. Andy, we are thinking about you. Fran will leave a large hole in our hearts, but she will also leave happy memories. She was very loving and kind, with an intelligent sense of humor. We will miss her very much, but know that she is watching over us.

Dear Andy and family - The world has lost a lovely lady. Her smile lit up a room and her joy and happiness lingered with those who shared time with her long after she had left the party or the dinner. Michael, Grayden and I were so sorry to hear the news. I will always treasure her laughter, her beauty, her kindness. My thoughts of Fran include the many special, happy moments shared around a lake in Northern Ontario and I will always keep the image of Frances bringing home her bear bell from that first summer in Thunder Bay. All our love, Michael, Catherine and Grayden Drew xo
