I am so sorry to hear of Aunt Frans passing. I have some very fond memories of staying with Aunt Fran and Uncle Charles as a kid. Aunt Fran and us kids would stay up late playing gin rummy and eating her home made banana nut bread. I am so sad that I can not be there at the service on Friday. Sadly these occasions seem to be the only time that I get to see that side of the family. I love and miss you all and I do hope to see you all soon under pleasant circumstances. All my love, Deb Lytle "Abilene"
