Frances Courtade

I'm thinking of the various times that Joe and I visited with Fran. Our last visit was in Hawaii in 2019, when Fran was there with Pamela and family and Joe and I visited 5 islands. Much love to all. Marjorie

Pam and family, we were so sorry to hear of your moms passing. She was a wonderful person. What a beautiful picture of her. Prayers are with you all Amy and mark sagal

I first met Fran (Toni B. to the Joe Beards) in the 1970s and heard many of her stories about trips to Vegas to gamble, as well as how much she loved her place in Donner above Lake Tahoe. Looking through some of Joe's papers, I found some pictures of when she, Joe and Bill were little. I'll miss her friendly smile and cheerful reports of how her dogs were doing.

Fran was as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside. She had a huge compassionate heart and welcomed all to her homes throughout the years. She was always well dressed and styled even in her later years. All who knew her adored her. She will Be greatly Missed by all who knew her. Rest in peace kind sweet lady.

What a beautiful tribute to such a special woman! May her memory be eternal and love to you all!
