Praying for the repose of Frances. Was sorry to hear of her death. She was a delight. I visited her at Eagle Estates. I enjoyed our time together. She would share her books with me. I will miss her. I will have Father Zach offer a Mass for the repose of her soul. Our sympathy to all of you. We lost a beautiful person but not sad for her. May she rest in peace. You have our love and prayers. Teresa Strecker
I am truly sorry for your loss and will keep you all in my prayers. Jean Ann (Schneider) Kariker.
Frances use to come to my quilt shop on Sunday afternoon. It was a delight to see her come in. Her husband would drop her off and he'd go on west to check out the road construction going on then. Frances would buy backing and batting for the baby quilts she and the ladies of her church would make. She was a wonderful lady and I always enjoyed visiting with her.
I knew your Momma, but not nearly as well as my mother (Maude Cook) did. She shared special memories of working beside her for a period at the Iceberg. Their friendship lasted for many years. I am sadden to hear of her passing; may God comfort you with fond memories of better times.
Fond memories of the eighth and ninth street neighborhood. Sad for your loss.
