Frances will be greatly missed for her sense of humour! She was a fun Great Aunt, both to have visit and to come visit out in the USA! Condolences to all of her close family and friends.

A Reminiscence
YES, thou art gone! and never more
Thy sunny smile shall gladden me;
But I may pass the old church door,
And pace the floor that covers thee.
May stand upon the cold, damp stone,
And think that, frozen, lies below
The lightest heart that I have known,
The kindest I shall ever know.
Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast been;
To think a soul so near divine,
Within a form so angel fair,
United to a heart like thine,
Has gladdened once our humble sphere.

I remember Fran and Eleanor wheeling the kids in their strollers and chatting without stop on Putnam Rd. in Bedford while Kevin and Ray were running into everybodys back yard. They were fast friends sharing their thoughts on every subject. I stopped by Fran's house in center Bedford often to say hello. She was a lovely person.

They started off as neighbors and became best friends. While the kids ran around the neighborhood, Fran and Eleanor chatted over coffee and shared concerns about the kids, school, gardening, etc. I'm reminded of the words to the theme song for Golden Girls -Thank You for being a Friend, traveled down a road and back again, your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidant.
The ole coffee clutch is now together in heaven.

Fran Dupont was just one of the sweetest Mums I ever knew. Part of my childhood was living in Bedford and having Kevin as a friend, which meant having Mel (Dupont) and Fran as your friend as well. The planet is just a bit poorer today, having lost one of its shining pieces. Godspeed Fran, I will always remember.

It feels like I knew Mrs. Dupont through Kevin's friendship the past several years. My best to the family during this great loss.
