Frances loved her Lord with all her heart. She spent many years working with South Central Bell, upon retirement, she spent many years volunteering and giving back to her community. She volunteered countless hours at DCH Hospital, Christian Ministry Center, Temporary Emergency Services, as well as several other local organizations. She was a faithful member of First Baptist Church of Tuscaloosa for many years. She was a very active volunteer at her church and served in numerous capacities. She was also a member of the Women's Auxiliary of Gideons International. She really lived out the Great Commission. We will all miss her, but we can rest in the fact that we will see her again. We are thankful that she has been healed and made whole.
