Fran spent her life as a devoted follower of Christ and was always active in local churches in Atlanta, GA, Tallapoosa, GA, Hannibal, MO, Washington Courthouse, OH, Eufaula, AL and Montgomery, AL whether being a pianist, church choir member, teacher, mentor, or friend. Fran loved John and her family but above all else, Fran loved the Lord, and instilled that love in each of her family members who she loved dearly, and they in turn loved her fiercely. We are grateful for Fran showing us in words and most importantly in her actions on how to love Him with all her heart, soul, and mind. We are living in the great countless waves of the generational blessing of this order and this love. We miss you so much, Fran / Mom / Mimi, but we will see you soon – the hope of heaven is real. In the meantime, whether in days of plenty or days of little, we will do the same as you taught us.
