It is difficult for a family to know how much reach a loved one carries with them and Fran was my Mom’s friend for so many years that she was as though a part of our family indeed. More than a few personal moments with Fran through the years and a number of her offspring cemented Fran’s role and place endeared in our lives, both in this time and in our continuing time where Fran leads and we will all meet together again. To the loved ones of Fran, warmest condolences for our missing Fran just now, and bright hope for our patience to all our future reunions with Fran.
