Frances Saucedo Obituary
Frances is the daughter of Teresita Tomlin of Rio Rancho, and the niece of Virginia Flores, Gloria McGeorge, Romeo Flores, and Marina Flores. She was born on April 24, 1970, in the Philippines and passed away on May 4, 2016, in Tucson, Arizona after a battle with cancer. In addition to her mother, Frances is survived by her son Thomas Donahue; daughter Leilani Donahue; and brother Kurt Tomlin and his wife Donna, all of Tucson, Arizona.
Frances moved to Rio Rancho in the late-80s and attended Cibola High School. She eventually returned to Tucson and worked nineteen years in the medical field, mainly as a medical assistant attending to many in need. She had aspirations of returning to school to reach her goal of becoming a traveling nurse so she could reach out to even more people. Frances will be deeply missed by her family and friends.
A private burial service with family will be held in Rio Rancho so that she can be laid to rest next to her grandmother, Natividad Cano.
