To Derien and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time. Fran was a special person. She was always like an example of what a christian person should be. I will always cherish the time we shared together serving in the church at Englewood.

 To the Fontenot family,
You all hold a special place in my heart and always will. Fran will always be special to me and be a light for Jesus that will never go away. God bless you all as you live each day.

Mr. Fontenot, Derana, Nigel and especially Philip, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother.

To all the Fontenot Family,
I have many fond memories of Fran and me as we were growing up together (She was "Pete" to us at that time).  Also, good times with Derien and Fran before and after their marriage.  Wish I could have been at the funeral services, but my thoughts and prayers were there at the time.  May God continue to bless and comfort all of you.
