Frances Bostwick Obituary

Frances Bostwick
Oct 1, 1918 - Mar 16, 2013
A lifelong resident of Denair and Turlock, Frances passed away peacefully on Saturday, March 16, 2013. She was preceded in death by her husband of 59 years, Frank Bostwick. She is survived by her daughter Patty Scott (Richard), sons Jim (Jean), and Don (Donna), and 6 grandchildren: Evan, Andrew, Stephen, Christine, Yraine, and Austin. They enjoyed camping, and she loved knitting and baking, but her passion was her grandchildren.
In 1983, she retired from over 30 years with the Turlock Irrigation District. Frances was a member of Eastern Star and the First United Methodist Church.
A graveside service will be held Thursday, March 21, at Turlock Memorial Park, 575 N. Soderquist Rd., at 2:30 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please send remembrances to the First United Methodist Church, 1660 Arbor Way, in Turlock, or the Alzheimer's Association,
