    Fran brought a smile to everyone who meet her, knew he and loved her. Growing up we were the cousins who always played together on holidays, Sunday visits on Carver Street, and throughout our adult lives. She was the “rock” of courage and despite her hard journey, she continued to smile. He grace, her soul and her spirit will live on. My sympathy to her children and grandchildren, her parents uncle Frank and Aunt Syl, and to her siblings Edie and Mike. To us, her cousins, we will continue to extend our love to you and to each other.
