I have such fond memories of Francis. I never heard her speak unkind words and she was a kind and loving woman. She will be missed by all that knew her.

Frannie was sitting there at that corner table with Margie, Pauline, and Dorothy. Frannie had just turned 100 a few days before. I said to the table that Frannie was an old woman, that she was over 100 years old. Margie said I shouldn't call Frannie an old woman. Frannie looked up and grinned ... said Why not, I'm 100 years old, I am an old woman. And she continued to smile.
She is missed by lots of people.

Frannie was the best walking partner! We covered many miles on the P.Hill streets and through the cemetery. She definitely out walked me! Her zest for life and interest in people was amazing! My life was enriched by her friendship. Love to her family and may the memories be sweet!
