Fond memories we have of Frances and Harry. When were married and moved to Roanoke in 1968 we were invited by our then neighbor, Alice Price to attend First Wesleyan Church. We did. Harry and Frances were always so friendly and loving. We have been in Austinville for 30 years, but I knew the moment I saw the name, it was one of loving friends from many years ago. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Joyce, during these sad days.

Joyce,
I was so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. Uncle Harry loved her so much and I know that he was waiting to see her and have her by his side. I would love to see you. Aunt Francis called me a few years ago and told me how much you looked like Mom.
I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Please call me sometime and I would love to share some of the memories I have of Uncle Harry and your Mom. God Bless You.
