We now have another “ANGEL” that we can count on to watch over us and call upon. Frances had an extremely strong work ethic that she instilled in all her children. She worked in the food service industry in order to make a living, but she truly loved cooking for the people she most loved… her family and friends. You could always count on Mom to make sure all her guests had enough to eat. Everyone enjoyed her tamales for Thanksgiving and Christmas, her cookies for weddings and quinces, and flour tortillas she made only when Sergio came home to visit (family joke). Frances was always there for her family… steady and dependable, her children knew they could always count on her help. She adored her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and loved being surrounded by all the generations. She taught her family the value of tradition which was evident in many ways, but most recently by teaching her niece and granddaughter how to make tamales. She volunteered at church and was recognized by the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston for her service. Frances worked hard all her life, being a loyal wife and dedicated mother and grandmother, a dependable employee, but she also loved to play and had a zest for living. After retiring, she traveled all over the world with family and friends. She especially enjoyed her Senior Citizen trips with her traveling group. It never mattered where they were going… she didn’t want to miss anything and looked forward to each new experience with them.
She was predeceased by her parents, Sabas and Severa Falcon; brothers, Luis Falcon and Albert Falcon; Sister, Hortencia “Tencha” Saucedo; husband, Heleodoro “Lolo” Galvan.
She is survived by her 5 children, Leticia Mares (Martin), Gerardo Galvan (Robin), Esmeralda Galvan (Blair), Sergio Galvan (Bianca) and Cesareo Galvan. Sister, Gloria Falcon, and Brother, Lionel Falcon (Antonia).
She was blessed with 13 Grandchildren, 5 Great Grandchildren, numerous nieces and nephews who love her very much.
