Fran wrote several books over the years -- from children's short stories to non-fictional novels to a treasured cookbook -- few even proudly self-published. She raised two sons, took care of her mother until she died, and she nursed her sick husband, who died relatively young. After Jack passed, she went to beauty school and supported herself as a manicurist well into her 80's. In addition, she was passionate about her"Ve d'Optique" 3-dimensional art and her gorgeous crochet blankets. And she ave much of herself to Our Lady of the Rosary Church: Besides serving as a eucharistic minister, she enjoyed serving as president and member of several clubs.
Fran's fierce independence, strong sense of self, clear values, ardent spirituality, and generous heart - not to mention her pasta sauce - left a lasting impact on many. She will be remembered for her stubborn determination, compassion for others, fearless self-expression, and beautifully decorated and always clean home, along with her incredible cooking and creative accomplishments.
