Peace and well wishes to Fran's family. I also worked with Fran for more than 20 years at USNH. I'd guess she never told you what a talented and thoughtful employee she was. So many incidents when Fran's work was the source of out-of-the-spot-light excellence.
Not to mention peanut butter balls at Christmas. Strength and well wishes to cope with missing her. Joan Tambling

To the Horne family,
My deepest sympathy on Franny's passing. Like Brenda we were neighbors but just far enough apart in age that I unfortunately didn't get to know her very well.
May she rest in peace.

My deep condolences go out to Fran's family & friends.
Fran & I worked together for many years at UNH & the System office. I'll never forget Fran & Judy, they were so close, and I admired them being sisters.
God Bless Fran & her family.

I was a classmate of Frances. Saw her at our last class reunion. Frances always had a smile and such a gentle spirit. Thoughts and prayers to her family..

My brother, Steve, forwarded me the notice of her untimely passing. We were such good neighborhood friends: We spent hours together and even walked to school, as a pair, most mornings. As close neighbors, she became the sister that I never had. Rest in peace, Fran.
Love, Brenda (Johnson) Linton Westerly, Rhode Island
