Frances was my sister in Christ!
She and I were members at this awesome church called, Union Wesley AMEZ Church in Washington, D.C. Her kindness and love for others, was a constant demeanor! Her beautiful smile showed so brightly, wherever she went. She was a beautiful person on the inside as well as the outside! I will never forget her her kindness and love for others! R.I.P.
