We were of the same mind, we loved our family so and never spoke a harsh word since we were in full accord with the mating of their beloved Cathy with our beloved David who raised our three wonderful grandkids. She will be missed!!

Being David (Cathy Lang Fantle) aunt I met Frances a number of times on occasions. What a lovely, always smiling lady. I saw where her goodness translated to Cathy too.

She is a loss to her family and to the spirit of this world.

Many condolences to the Laang Family. My prayers are with you.

Love, Lorrie Waller Stelzer

Dear Dick, Cathy, Paul and Family,
We are very sad to hear of Franny's passing and I must tell you how grateful I am for the many years of wonderful friendship with all of you! Franny was always so very kind and warmhearted to all in our family. Markie used to really enjoy visits with her and Dick, and I always looked forward to visiting in Brookfield and wandering across the street to catch up with her on her work and her wonderful family! She was always so proud of all of you, and loved to share stories of your many adventures! Dick, I am so very sorry for your loss and will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers. Franny will really be missed. Thanks for sharing her with the rest of us!
Love to all,
Kathy and Tom Lewis & Family
