Dear Fran's Family--I loved the years Fran and I taught together at Bolton Middle School. I was also fortunate to coach Shannon in those early years. We will miss Fran. Wishing you all peace and goodness.

Wishing we could be with you to give you a much needed hug. We'll be back in time for Fran's service thankfully. Take care of each other as you hear her voice telling you what to do next. You've done an amazing job walking through the list of things to do. We've all got a big job to do caring on her legacy. Her spirit will be with us always. With love, Mary & Gary
