Fran you have always been a part of my life since I was big enough to have a memory. You were a great role model to all that were around you. You were smart, pretty, kind, and had a personality that was larger than life. I always looked forward to your visits after you left Virginia. I would wait in great antisipaton for you to arrive. Don't know how we'll get along without you. Will miss texting with you & & sending you holiday, birthday,snow days & super bowl texts. I know you are with Leo & God is taking care of you. You were my favorite cousin & will be forever in my heart. I love you! Your cousin Bonnie!

Mom says I get my bookworm gene from you. From a young age, I have very fond memories of making a teepee from your folding lawn chairs simply so I could be close to you and lay out like a big girl while you sped read your latest Stephen King novel. You would take breaks at chapters to play with me in the pool or the sprinklers, while telling me a dumbed down version the plot for me because I HAD to know what had your attention so strongly. You nurtured the creative sprit within me to want to learn and read as much as I could. As it turned out, that nurturing has geared my life and education in the direction I could not be more pleased with. Your example taught me to be strong, confident and to never let anyone tell me what I could or could not do. I'll love you forever, my gramma.

Bryan, my sincere condolences to you and your family. From the obituary I sense that your mom was one nice lady, with a fun personality, and possessed a strong work ethic, and I think you inherited those same qualities from her. Sincerely, Susan

Mom was the heart and sole of our family, we loved her very much and are thankful for the time we had. She was one of my greatest roll models and best friends, just lucky I guess... She will be missed. Love you Mom.
