Sister Frances Fuchtman, the daughter of Joseph and Clara (Schula) Fuchtman, was born at Aloys.

She graduated from St. Ludger School in 1932. She taught in a rural school in Creighton for two years. In June 1935, she was received into the Order of School Sisters of St. Frances. [For many years she was known as Sr. Rosamund.]

She received a BES Degree from Alverno College, [Milwaukee] and taught in the Elementary Schools in Forest Park and Our Lady of Victory, Chicago, Clear Creek and Earling, IA, Denver, Colorado, Pierce, Osmond, Snyder, Fremont and Petersburg in Nebraska. She retired in 1994.

This MAXIM explains the character of Sister Frances...If your life is unselfish and for others you live. For not what you get, but how much you can give. If you live close to God in His Infinite Grace, you don't have to tell it, it shows in your face.

Her motto was to: accept each moment of the day and do the best you can with it.

Survivors include sisters, Edna Burns, Florence Hasenpflug of Creighton, Sister Kathleen of Milwaukee and Margaret Focht of Lewiston, ID; brothers, Edwin of Hartington, Raymond, Willard and Joseph of Creighton, nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents and three brothers.
