We could not believe it when we heard about Fran. We are so sorry for your loss and the fact that we don't read the newspaper obituaries on a more regular basis to have known sooner. Wish we could have been there to support you. Hope you know how much we love you and please accept our sincerest & deepest condolences. We will see you soon.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Armm, Sherry, Amanda & Molly,
I was just informed today of Fran's passing. Needless to say I was in shock. I had reconnected with her in the past year when I found her listed on "Classmates" online. We phoned & emailed each other, sharing jokes, keeping up on the old crowd and discussing our current lives. Although I've been away from the old neighborhood for some 30+ years, it felt like I was still back there sharing some of the best times of my life.
Fran always had a marvelous sense of humor, even throughout the bad times. She was a real trooper!
My heartfelt condolences go out to all of you...this is a tremendous loss to everyone who knew her. I will always remember her in my heart and hope that all who ever came in contact with her will do the same - she was a very special friend.

Mr. and Mrs. Armm and Sherry. I had not seen Fran in many years, but as soon as I began to remember the time we spent together as childhbood friends a big smile came upon my face. Despite the terrible loss, I know that you will cherish the memories of such a happy positive person. Fondly, Mark

Dear Lorelei, Bert, Sherry, Amanda & Mollyo,
I was so shocked to hear about Frannie, she was a longtime friend of mine from childhood to adulthood.
If it wasn't for Fran I never would have moved back to Albany. She will surely be missed by all who knew her. Again, Please accept my condolences.

Dear Fran's Family,
I was very sad to learn of Fran's sudden passiing -- what a shock. I work at the PSC on the same floor (4) that Fran worked and would see her quite often. She had a great smile and was noticeably sunny and upbeat. When we would bump into each other around town after she retired she would mention Molly and Amanda and it was obvious that Fran was a devoted and loving mother. As a fellow Jew, we would speak from time to time about the Jewish holidays that were coming up, and I could tell that she had a strong Jewish identity. I especially remember that Fran would be happy to receive hamentashen and other goodies on Purim, so its striking to me that the 30-day mourning period (shloshim) for her will apparently end exactly on Purim. May Fran's memory always be a blessing to you, may G-d comfort you among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem, and may you know no more pain and sorrow from now on. Sincerely, Ruvain Kudan

Mr. and Mrs. Armm, Sherry and family:
My deepest sympathies on the loss of your daughter, your sister, your mother, and your friend. I met Fran very briefly back in the 70s, though I suspect she had no memory of me. I used to run into her parents quite frequently at the Stewarts on New Scotland when my family still lived in Albany. This is an extraordinarly difficult time, and made more difficult by her passing at a relatively young age. May you all find peace and happiness despite your sorrow.
