Frances Erle Obituary

Name: Graveside service for Frances B. Erle
Start: 2020-07-11T14:00:00.000Z
Location: Cedar Hill Memorial Park

Frances B. Erle, 82, passed away Monday, July 6, 2020 in the Cedarbrook Nursing Home, Allentown. She was the wife of the late Robert G. Erle, Sr. Frances was born in Allentown a daughter of the late Frank Yarema and Agnes J. (Brenner) Yarema. She was a former member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Allentown. Mom had a strong faith in God, an infectious smile a ready laugh and made friends everywhere she went. She helped others in any way she could and loved to give and share. Two of her famous quotes were "It's ok, your're not crazy it's the rest of the world" and "take my advice, I'm not using it". She was incredibly, boastfully proud of all her kids, mentioning to her girls what a great job we had done with our own kids. Mom had to be reminded where we learned how to be such good and loving mothers. Her greatest joy in life was her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She never forgot to tell each of them "Always remember, I love you to pieces and then I love all of the pieces". Fran fought a very tough battle with COVID-19 but ultimately gave in to the arms reaching down from Heaven by our Dad, Sister Mary ("Mo") & Brother, Bobby ("Just Bob"). She missed them terribly and we all believe that hole in her heart is finally full again. We know she is safe, pain free, loved and whole again which is our only comfort in losing her.

Mom I can't believe it's been an entire year since you were reunited with Dad, Mary, Bob & Grammy & Pappy and your best friend Peggy.
I know you are feeling young, healthy, fabulous & your heart is nearly whole again. The only difference is the emptyness is backwards now. You don't have Donna, Jean, me and your great and great great grandkids close. We miss you so much but I personally feel comforted in the fact that I know God called you home. He only takes the souls of the good ones Mom, so I know that you're going to meet me when God calls me. Until then I want you to tell the rest that I hear and see your signs letting me know that you're still with me. It comforts me. I love you so much.
Until then, always feel my love. And thank you for coming in the dream last night. I'm ok and I'll take care of "Mackie". Never worry about that.

So many memories of my childhood time with Fran. She was always so good to me and my family. My parents loved her and my dad always had a special place in their home , be it every Sunday morning for coffee or Daytona 500 races she always had a kind heart and a welcome hand. For somebody that never had very much the Earle Family was rich in friendship and love the Butz family and the Earle family spend many wonderful times together. I will always remember the special times I had with my Mom and Fran driving around as a young child and how she made me laugh as she really brought out the best in people. God will have a special place for her in heaven along with her son , daughter and husband who were all very special people to me and my family. God Bless
