Aunt Frankie was a joy to be with, she was always so filled with love for her family and friends. Donald refers to her as his favorite aunt. With love,

I will always cherish the many memories I have of Aunt Frankie. The times at the farm - the coffee, cookies, and conversations. Family gatherings where Aunt Frankie would always poke at the icing on a cake when she thought no one was looking for a "taste". She was a woman of strong faith, which I always admired. I am thankful she was a part of my life for many years, and feel privileged to have known her. God Bless!
