Fran was a special person who with Ken saved hundreds of thousands of lives. I consider myself lucky to have known her and her commitment to turning tragedy into motivation for improvement is inspiring and a lesson for all. She suffered a bit in recent years and so I'm glad she no longer faces that but the world has lost a special person, generous and worldly and kind.

So many memories of Fran, Ken, and Harlan. I well remember Kamy a beautiful young lady as she is around the same age as Lisa. What miracles Fran and Ken managed with regard to safe driving. Thinking of you now at this special time.

So sorry to hear about Fran> I think back to all the memories we shared as roommates way back in the 50's. You two made a wonderful team together. I will be in touch. Beryl

My deepest condolences and sympathy to Ken and Harlan. I had the good fortune of knowing Fran for decades and continually observed what an exceptional person she was. The world is a better place for her presence. Now she has been reunited with Kamy.
