I cared for Frances for nearly 6 months, along with her special friend Dale Story. I heard so many wonderful stories about each and every family member of hers and couldn't express how much she loved each of you! I would just like to say Frances and Dale have touched my heart more than they will ever know! Frances was the sweetest, kindest, and funniest ladies I have ever met or cared for! I will never forget her or Dale. I just want to send my condolences to both of their families!  I recently met Paul and his wife and I must say your mother was a wonderful women and Dale was a wonderful man!
