In October 1997, Frances married Robert "Scott" Parks. They moved many times over the course of their marriage experiencing and appreciating the beauty of our country and people all around . Her proudest role was as a mother to their daughter, Rebecca Parks, whom she cherished.

She is survived by her husband Scott Parks; daughter, Rebecca Parks; her brothers, James Lewis and Stephen Lewis; and her sisters, Virginia Fretwell and Kate Johnson. Her memory will live on in the hearts of her family and all who knew and loved her.
