Frances Coyle

Our Beloved Gayle Frances Coyle was called home to the comforting arms of Jesus Christ, dutifully and lovingly cared for by her daughter Debra Buratti-Canizales and son-in-law George Canizales, onward to glory, on October 21, 2023.

Frances, aged 82, was born in Austin, Texas on December 10, 1940. She attended Stephen F. Austin High School. She was a loving wife and mother, helping to raise three children by working not only at IBM, but a prestigious law firm downtown. Frances was fiercely loyal to her family and all those she loved, and enjoyed traveling, visiting friends, and spoiling and spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

She is preceded in death by her son, David Kirk Buratti; husband, David Trevino Buratti; parents, San Juanita Monreal Lung and William Coyle; stepfather, Arthur Lung Sr., who raised her and she held in high regard, and her sister, Yolanda Lung.

Frances is survived by her daughters, Debra Buratti-Canizales (George) and Cynthia Buratti; daughter-in-law, Melissa Buratti; sisters, Nadine Sustaita, Linda Yvonne Coyle-Peterson, and Maria Elena Coyle; brothers, Raymond Lung, John Lung and Arthur Lung II; grandchildren, Robert Rene Gonzalez (Rebekah), Lisa Gonzalez Jauregui (Paul), Jennifer Canizales (Oni), Waid Buratti (Monica), Christopher Buratti, Brandon Buratti, and Elena Buratti, Lorenzo Luna, Dylan Luna and 16 great-grandchildren.
