My condolences to the family of Fran, my former colleague at New Dorp. Fran was a warm, loving, caring person. Even throughout her illness, when she would see me in the halls, she made me feel like I was the most important person she had spoken to that day. May her soul rest in God's presence and may He comfort her family.

Mrs. Bennett was a source of inspiration to everyone who met her. I have only known her barely 4 years, but in that time she has showed me what it's like to display true character. Throughout her battle she always wore a smile on her face and enchanted all that met her with her sweet voice."God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered come to me, With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away, Although we oved you dearly, we...

Dear Bobby, Ryan, Courtney and Drew,
Your wife and mom was a source of joy to all who knew her. Please know that so many people will have wonderful, uplifting memories of her. That surely speaks to the special quality of our Fran.

Fran-- I so thought of you this 4th of July-- remembering how we talked and watched fireworks and fireflies over our fence on Milton Ave. You told me plots of dark movies with sad and heroic endings. Life is so curious-- I tried calling you on numerous occasions but did not get through. Unfortunately we have been extremely engaged in the death of Frank's mother and the elder care of her husband and siser in law which took all our time last year.

A valient warrior has been laid to rest. She fought a noble battle.

Mrs. Almalfi-bennet I love you and I will miss you very much
