This is the only picture of Franny I have. It's from the last Christmas she was in Florida. That's me on the left, i was 16 then, i think that's Joe as Santa and my mother (Gail) on the right.

I worked with Frannie for 2 years at Publix in Florida. She was like a grandmother to me. She was always laughing and having a good time. She brightened the lives of many coworkers and customers. She helped many people with the little things she could do. She had her own 'fan club', customers would only go through her line. She was one of my best friends and I miss her a lot. Everyday I go to work and I'm reminded of all the good times we shared. On behalf of my family, freinds and coworkers i want to say R.I.P Frannie. You will be greatly missed. We will carry you in our hearts forever. I love you. I have been blessed to have had you in my life.

I wish I could say I have a ton of story to tell of my Aunty Frannie but being one of the youngest O'leary boys I can't. I can say that everytime I did see her she always had a smile and always was having a good time. I am hoping she is in a better place having a good time and a smile with my mom.
