My grandmother is my heart. She believed in me and all our families that we can better our lives. I loved her more than anything. I'm glad she met our son Anthony Javier Bartley. She blessed all our hearts. I'm glad I got to spend my life with hers.

Francisca was a wonderful person. A great grandmother to my four wonderful children. Dawn Nicholas. Mother of Brandy, Michael, Brittany and Emilio. She will be dearly missed but always be in the hearts that all that loved her.

Dear Sabala Family,
I had the pleasure of dancing with Grandma Frances at Iris/Dave's wedding. When I initially asked her to dance, she said, "OK, maybe for a little bit" and then she proceeded to dance for not one, but TWO songs! Her warm smile and kind heart touched all who met her. Thank you for sharing your beloved Panchita with the extended Dobson/Farris family, it was an honor to have known her.

Alex and family,
I just wanted you and your family to know how sorry we are for your loss. There are no better memories than those shared with your "Grandma." Now that I am one, there is no greater joy I have ever had than loving and experiencing my grandsons, which will soon be joined by a granddaughter! May your grandmother live on in your hearts and memories.
Love,
