I just heard about your Mom and even knowing it was her time I feel such a sense of loss. Francesca was a true inspiration to me as a nurse and a person. She was loyal, hardworking, never tiring, and always cheerful. My time spent with her will always be one of my best memories of my time
at Deaconess. "Franca" Condon, a true gem!!!

Dear Bill & Bridget, Billy Jr., Shawn, Bridget & Howard, and Marisa,
We loved and cherished your Mother, our beautiful sister-in-law, Franca. She was loving, generous, compassionate and forgiving to all our family. Through the years we spent many hours in her company along with our brother Bill, and laughed and cried through our joys and sorrows.
May God comfort and bless you all through this most difficult time in your lives.
Uncle John & Aunt Mary

The Clock of Life . . .
The clock of life is wound just once
No one has the power to tell
Just when the hands will stop
On which day or which hour
Now is the only time we have
So, live it with a will
Don't wait until tomorrow
The hands may then be still.
Franca lived life with a will and she lived it well. A gifted and gracious lady.
She has left many happy memories for all of us who were privileged to have been a part of her life. My friendship with Franca was through work (ACU-Deaconess) Leah Oxford

All of my memories of Franca are happy. She enjoyed events and people and never failed to make me feel like seeing each other was a moment of joy. I thank her for that quality and her lovely smile. I hope all the consolation memory holds wraps each of you in comfort. Tracy

Franca's family-All of us who worked with Franca at Deaconess not only loved her but admired the quality of her friendship and her work. There must be many good memories of her great humor.

Franca was an icon who came into my life when I was a teenage hippy poser and continued to influence me through the past four decades. Her classic line: "Marry for money, Kathy . . . the love will come." I loved her with all my heart and will continue to cherish her memory. My thoughts are with each of her children during this sad time. I love you all. K. Erickson
