Frances Mary Lee

Frannie, I cannot say how much I will miss you. Your kindness, interest and unfailing neighbor-ness to the goofy single lady next door with a kid will never, ever be forgotten. You are in mine and Matt's hearts forever. I will never forget when you and other neighbors rang our doorbell before Christmas almost 25 years ago to sing Christmas carols. Matt was 8. He answered the door. I was flat in bed with broken foot. Matt came running to my room to ask if he could go with you and your group to sing Christmas carols. Fran, he was so thrilled to be asked. And he joined you and you later gave him hot chocolate and how could I not love you after that? You were unfailingly kind and interested in Matt. Always encouraging. Always understanding mom to mom. I know you are in a better place. I just wasn't ready to let you go. I miss you, Fran. God Bless you. XOXOXO
