Per her wishes, Franny was cremated. Her burial will take place at a later date. If you would like to remember Franny, please give to a local animal charity in her name, or plant some pansies, as those were her favorite flower.

I am very saddened by the loss of my loving Auntie Franny. Her patience, kindness, thoughtfulness, and deep faith in God has been and will always remain a true inspiration to me. I clearly remember the conversation we had when I was a young girl when she encouraged me to follow her lead of caring for those in need and become a nurse. I will always have a special place in my heart for her and will miss her tremendously.

Karen and family, I am so saddened to learn of the loss of Fran. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and more to many. Any time I ever saw her, she always had a smile. Just a kind and gentle soul. May the memories of her life comfort you today and forever. I am so sorry for your loss.
