Sorry to learn of the passing of Francis. I worked with her and Bobby at Retail Credit Company when their girls were small. Sending my condolences to her family.
Frances was my second mom as a child…Pam and I were joined at the hip…I spent so much time at their home…I was like another child to them. I have so many great childhood memories, like the trips to Kmart for the blue light specials and the time in the butterbean fields…then the shelling began. Frances will be missed but Heaven has gained another angel!! my thoughts and prayers are with the family! Love ya, Bunnie Goodsell Edwards
May God give you strength and comfort for the coming days.
