My sympathy and prayers to all the family. I will miss my dear friend as we had many talks and laughs together. Mondays were our day to share our faith when I brought her Holy Communion. She would look forward to receiving " HER Jesus " as she would say.

Fran was one of my favorite dental patients. We became friends as we discussed our children as they grew to adults and she was always so kind. I have retired now and have not seen her in over 8 years but her kind advice was always endearing. Much love to all of your grieving family.
