I am so sad that you, Fran, are no longer with us physically. However, the memories I hold of you Fran are very dear. Fran was a warm, caring, intelligent, wise, humble, classy and family oriented person. I am so blessed to have had Fran as my nana for about 40 years. Fran was a salt of the earth person and lived her life with such admirable grace. Someone I aspire to emulate. Fran, you are very sadly missed by me, and many others; but fondly remembered forever. Thank you for the kindness you always showed me. Thank you for being such a nice person. Love Always, Linda xoxo
