Frances Kurch

Perhaps the only time in my life I ever loved football was when Franny arranged to take us to the Saturday Kensington High School games. She was a fan extraordinaire. My girlfriend Linda was a baton twirler, and that was a draw, but Franny just loved being a fan. She would locate someone with a convertible, cover it with green and gold streamers (Kensington's colors) and off we'd go honking and waving and shouting. We learned quickly not to o sit next to her in the bleachers. Whenever there...

Jon I was saddened to hear of your mother's passing. She & I went to high school together & I remember her well. I enjoyed seeing her. At our class reunions. May she rest in peace.

Jon, so sorry! I always liked Fran! I enjoyed having you & her in my exercise class! My thoughts & prayers are with you!

Fran and I go back a long time. We were in Buffalo Number 9 school and Kensington HS together. She was my HS girlfriend, Linda's best friend so we saw a lot of one another. I remember a dinner party at her house, a Halloween party, swimming at Arrowhead in Delevan and at a ski lodge, double dating at the zoo and walking home from high school many a day. Peter too was an old high school chum. So sad.

So sorry to hear of Fran's passing. I met her thru Pete, who also helped me immensely during my early recovery. My wife and I used to look forward to meeting Fran at Massara's market on Saturdays in Twinsburg. She was so much fun to talk with. Our prayers are with you all.

Jon, I am so sorry for your loss. There are no comforting words to help you through this, however know that Bonnie and I are always here if you need anything.

I am writing this at the same time the memorial service is being held. Jon, I loved both your father and mother dearly. They each helped me immeasurably during my early recovery. I know how close you were to your mom, Jon, and I am sending you lots of loving thoughts as you grieve your loss. God bless. Dan Herrington, Myrtle Beach
