To Fran's family,
I'm so sorry to hear of her passing, I worked at Dictaphone for over 34 years during that time Fran and I shared many good times and I have fond memories of her. She organized many a tag sale's that my husband and I had. She will be missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Our deepest sympathies. Nydia & Mike

Lorraine & family, I'm so sad to hear of Fran's passing. I had the privilege of being able to meet her my first day of work at Raybestos. She was so nice, so funny, and extremely kind. Fran had the best office at Raybestos, just above the Cafeteria. If you worked in the Main Office, you got to always stop in and say Hi. If you worked in the Lab, as I did, you simply walked to the door, ignored the Cafeteria and stopped in to see her anyway. She was such a joy and the best listener ever. Except if you asked her NOT to put your favorite candy in the candy dish! We went to tag sales every weekend and out to dinner as much as possible. If you needed to know about a restaurant, "just ask Frannie". And, she usually had a copy of the menu! After she left Raybestos and I moved to FL, I had the privilege once again of being able to speak with her everyday as we both worked for Dictaphone and even though we were in different states, we were really only an extension away. Good memories. Rest in peace my friend, you deserve it.
