Frances Augustine

Dear Liz, Bill and Buddy,
There is a song written after the death of his father, in which the songwriter imagines what it will be like, walking with Jesus, seeing His face, etc. He wondered if his dad danced for joy, stood in awe of his Lord's presence, or just fell to his knees. In my imagination, my Aunt Frannie was awed by His majesty, fell to her knees in worship and then just jumped up and danced with joy! Probably did some singing and shouting, too. Your mom was such a blessing...

Hi Guys

I remember your Mom when I reflect on those days growing up on Fletcher Ave. She was always there for us kids and I still remember how she took an interest in all the kids in the area and truly was interested in our futures. A great lady, Frannie was. I will never forget her and
will always keep her in my memories.

Dear Elizabeth,
There are few adults that I remember from early childhood in the 1950s, but, today, I can still picture your Mother in the pews of the old St. Paul's Church in Glenville. I was a classmate of yours at Glenville School and an altar boy at St. Paul's in the 1950s, and although I have not seen you or your Mother in over 50 years, I wanted to send my condolences when I saw Mrs. Augustine's obituary in the Greenwich Time online. My prayers are with her and with you.

Fran was one of the most generous people I ever met. She was one of my Mom's (Jo Musor) best friends and was so incredibly kind to me when I worked at Duval's during college. I never met anyone who laughed as much as she did, and who was such a joy to be around. I know that Mom is thrilled to have her join the group again in heaven, and that your sorrow over her passing will pass as you recall all the wonderful memories of her amazing life. May those memories sustain you at this time. God...

Dear Liz, Bill & Buddy,
Aunt Fran's passing leaves us with an emptiness that can never be filled. She was such a special part of our lives. My sisters and brother have many wonderful memories and we are so thankful. Words cannot express the sorrow we feel. She was truly an angel on earth. I wish I could be there, but please know that you are in my thoughts. My love to all of you.

Dear Elizabeth, Bill & George:
A shining light has now left the earth and is brightening up the heavens. The loss of your Mom is profound and you have my heartfelt sympathy. I always loved your Mom - the happiest, most generous and kindest aunt in the world. I wish I could be with my cousins these next few days. Please know that I am there in spirit. I love you. Lorraine
