I was sorry to hear of Frances' death but I know she is in Heaven with her loved ones. She was my grandfather's youngest sister. He was Otho Scott Nicely, the oldest of the Nicely children. My mother is Wyllis Nicely Burford. She knew Frances well, as Frances was only about seven years older than her. She and Frances and Johnnie used to play together. Mother and I wish we could have come for the visitation or funeral but are unable to do so. Mother thought a lot of Frances and her husband Preston.
Sincerely, Theresa (Burford) Bryant
