Frances Harkcom Obituary

In Loving Memory of Frances Marie (Proco) Harkcom, beloved wife, mother, sister, and friend, went home to be with Jesus on Oct. 31, 2025, at her home in Cape Coral, FL. Born on Nov. 13, 1940, in Pittsburgh, Frances lived a life filled with love, faith, and grace that touched the hearts of everyone she met. She shared a beautiful marriage with her devoted husband, Richard Harkcom, and was a loving mother to her sons, Michael Harkcom and Ross Harkcom. Frances was also a cherished sister to Anna Mae Proco, with whom she shared countless memories and a lifelong bond of love. Frances's faith was the foundation of her life. She was a woman of deep devotion who lived each day with kindness, humility, and gratitude. Her gentle heart and steadfast love reflected the peace she found in her relationship with Jesus Christ. She brought light and warmth wherever she went, reminding those around her of the beauty in simple acts of care and compassion. Her family takes comfort in knowing that she is now free from pain and rests in eternal peace and joy with her Savior. Though she will be deeply missed, her love and example will forever guide those she leaves behind. Frances will be lovingly remembered for her faith, her warmth, and her unwavering love for her family. Her spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew her.
