Dear Family of my first year high school year at Shawsville Hi School. What a speciall blessing of the Lord to have a teacher that had Christ in her heart and lived before us as a model for our lifes' path. A full life of faithful service to the One who now she is "face to face" beholding. What a Glory He sheds on our way.

Dear Cherished Friends, What wonderful memories are mine. Frances was a precious girl. She gave her all as a soldier in the Lord's Army. Our hearts are with you at this time. Dorothy and Kenneth Benson

As a child, I remember hearing Frances speak at church of her work in India when she would be home on furlough. I was saddened when my mother told me she was ill and had passed; however, my heart rejoices at what an amazing reunion in heaven hers has been - not only to be with Christ, but to also see those again who wouldn't be there if she had not obeyed the Lord's call on her life and gone to India. How wonderful is our Lord! We are praying for you all. May the Lord comfort your heart...

Dear Reva, Sherry, and family, We want to offer our condolences for the loss of your sister and aunt, Frances. Although we never met her, we heard a lot of praises about her from Lenny. She sounds like she was a very caring lady. Jesus, Our Saviour, is caring for her now. Peace.

Reva, June, Sherry & family, We are praying for you guys in your loss. I have fond memories of Frances and June's visits individually when they came to our parsonage while home on missionary leave. In recent years, while Frances was able to attend, I so enjoyed worshiping with her at church. Jim and I will be out of town this week and unable to be there, but we will be thinking and praying for you.

So sorry and our prayers are with the family at this time. Always admired such a dedicated family, and cherish memories of your
Dad's faithful service. What a greeting over there!

June, it's been many years since I have seen you and Frances. Since mama died in 05, I haven't been back to Salem and don't know much of what is going on. I'm sure Frances is enjoying the presence of the Lord, just as L.M. has for the past 14 years. I would never ask him to come back. God bless you during this difficult time.

Reva, June and family
So sorry to hear of your loss yet rejoicing that Frances is now free of pain and suffering - worshipping her Lord and Saviour face to face. I shall always cherish the times we had together when young. She has been a faithful servant to her Lord and a great inspiration to many. May our heavenly Father wrap His loving arms around you, sustain and comfort you as only He can do.

Melvine and I share in your loss. Frances Carter was a great Christian lady and missionary.

She lived and demonstrated the highest Christian standards of ethical, moral and spiritual values.

We honor her life and we shall miss her greatly.

Sincerely,

Hugh and Melvine Morgan
