I can´t even fathom that it´s been a decade without you. But you are with me all the time watching over me (and a whole bunch of us), and I think of you daily. I miss you so much. I´m so glad you were in my life.
BB,

we were such good friends and would talk for hours on the phone even though I only was able to meet her in person one time. We did business together for years when she was with Hamlyn and stayed friends afterwards. Somehow we drifted apart and lost touch. I am saddened to see this after all these years. Miss ya Frannie, you always have my heart.

Fran was a wonderful person whom I learned much from. I didn't know her for a very long time but she has left a permanent imprint on my heart. Rest in the peace of the summerland.

My Lady Fran....We spent many happy hours together. You were a friend and mentor to many of us in the Philly Pagan Community. You were a grand facilitator of beautiful rituals and brought so many of us together. My Lady, you had style and class. Thank you for all that you did for others and for all that you gave of yourself. May you rest gently in the Summerland. Until we meet again my Lady...all my Love!
