Ray, I am so sorry to hear about Fran's passing. Geri Dalton told me about Fran & Jimmy Lodato when I saw her this week. Her daughter, Jen & I live in Barnegat now. I have been out of Bergenfield for 20 years & sometimes miss things. My heartfelt condolences to you & your family. I had no idea she had suffered thru parkinsons. Well at least now know she is healed & healthy again & watching over your & the grandkids. God Bless. Jeanine Matthews (formerly Gasko)
