Aunt Frances was a most wonderful woman. I’m so happy she was my aunt. I’m thankful for her example of a Godly, loving, gentle and caring spirit.
She was also a great example of how to take care of oneself; I’m grateful for that too. She loved well and we all loved her. My prayers and thoughts are with all family and friends who are missing her, both right now and the days ahead.
Much much love,
Kim

Frances, a loving mother with loving ways. May our Lord comfort Margie, her family and friends today. A special place in heaven, with our Lord. How wonderful, more than we can imagine!
I love and cherish her.
My friend Frances always had a smile and made me laugh and feel special. We enjoyed talking about our children and grandchildren. She was a great friend and servant to our Lord.
Her smile was contagious. A beautiful woman through out. I’ve been friends with Daniel over 30 years. He definitely took after Frances, caring loving kind soul. It is sad to hear your time has come but I will have memories of you always. I still laugh when I think about your friend request popping up on Facebook. I couldn’t get my mom 20 yrs your jr. to figure out how to use a cell phone. Love you always camille.
Danny, my deepest sympathies to you and your family. What a beautiful life your mom lived. I always loved hearing the enthusiasm in her voice whenever she spoke about her family. She definitely touched my heart and I will truly miss her.
Danny, I am so sorry to hear about your Mom’s passing. May the Lord bless you during this difficult time.
Margie so sorry to hear of your Mothers passing. She was a sweet lady and loved her family dearly. My prayers for your family
