Kris and family...We now know that from somewhere, before the angels sleep, a watchful eye looks out to be sure that heaven's door is not left ajar, the thermostat is set for warm, Maggie is safe and within view, Francie will have plenty of blankets, and that the wind will carry whispers to Kevin that say with a smile "behave Kevin". She loved and adored you all, it showed all the time, and it endures. Onward, and with our prayers. Larry

Dear Kris, Kevin, Francie, Kevin, and Maggie,
We were so sorry to hear that your mom/grandmother passed away. We have so many fond memories of her. What a lovely lady she was. I remember the times she gave us rides home from school when it was raining. I think she was the only mom in the neighborhood who drove. Oh, and the fun times we had at Kris Lane. We were lucky to have such a nice neighborhood, weren't we? Please know that we understand what a difficult time this is, and that you are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Joanne, Curt, Jeff, and Jason

Both my Mum and I are very saddened by Auntie Fran's passing, and we are very sorry that being out here in Arizona prevents us from coming back on such short notice.

I have so many great memories of her, dating back more than 40 years. She was always fun, classy, and so very kind. My mother, Laurie Brennan, remembers Fran's great support and compassion during the good times as well as those that were more difficult.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Kris and her family. Again, our deepest condolences for a great loss.
