Frances Evangeline Jacques

home. Frances was a mighty person in a small frame. She worked for, and retired

from, the Division of Highways (now Cal Trans) where she met her husband of 40

years, Wilbur. She enjoyed reminiscing about her life’s travels and her life was full

of adventures including trips to Switzerland, Egypt, Yugoslavia, Turkey, Fiji, and

France, but she was always happy to return to her family home in Calimesa where

she lived for 61 years. Other happy family memories were made at the vacation

home she and her husband had in Corona Beach, Mexico. Frances remained very

sharp-minded, kept everything organized, and managed her own affairs. She was

devoted to her family and steadfastly attended to her faith with the help of her friends

at Valley Baptist Fellowship. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her and

enjoyed her wit, sly smile, and caring nature.

Frances was predeceased by her husband, Wilbur Jacques. She is survived by her

sons, Chris Jacques (and Christie), and Jere Jacques (and Joyce); her

grandchildren, J.J. Jacques and Angie Jacques (and Alec); and her sister Janice

Bradbury (and Jim). To commemorate her life, a service will be held at Valley

Baptist Fellowship at 12323 5th Street, Yucaipa on 07/09/24 at 10:00 a.m. followed

by a reception at the same site.
