Francis could have been in the Olympics for making the fastest and best flour tortillas ever. However, her professional trade was as a seamstress, able to make anything from clothing to upholstery. She was well known by friends and family for her talent and made many dresses for every occasion, including wedding dresses. She enjoyed having her coffee, waffles and banana for breakfast and would never turn down ice cream if you asked. In her free time, she would go shopping, garden and visit friends and family. She was kind and loving to everyone, including people she had just met.
