Frances H. McCrocklin, aged 91, of Monroe, Louisiana, passed away peacefully on Friday, June 20, 2025. Born in Mansfield, Louisiana, Frances spent more than a decade living in Brazil before returning to her beloved Monroe. She was the devoted wife of the late Ted A. McCrocklin, who preceded her in death in 1998.
Frances is survived by her three daughters, Stacy, Naomi, and Alison, and her son, Kingsley, along with their spouses. She took great joy in her nine grandchildren, who brought light and laughter into her later years.
Frances had a rich and full life, marked by her passions for gardening, playing bridge with close friends, and exploring new destinations. Her warmth, generosity, and strong spirit left an indelible mark on everyone who knew her. The family gratefully acknowledges the exceptional care she received in her final months and will forever treasure her memory.
