She is survived by four children: Victoria (Bob Wilhelm) of Hanna City, Randal (Tanya) Heinle of Peoria, IL Gerald Jr. (Amy) of Sugar Grove, IL and Charles (Mary) of Bloomingdale, IL. Seven grandchildren, Christopher, Matthew, Trever, Tyler, Samantha, Eric and Emily Heinle. One brother, Charles (Shirley) Nachtrieb of Peoria Heights.

Fran was a 1954 graduate of Woodruff High School. Her first job was at an A&W Root Beer Stand, she later worked at Giant Department Store for many years. She went on to work at Methodist Hospital in 1976, retiring in August 1996, creating lifelong friendships with some of her co-workers.
Fran always cherished having her immediate family all together at the house for dinner talking and reminiscing about what ever came up. She especially loved Christmas with the family and loved buying gifts for all the family and that special gift for her kids. Summer was her favorite time of the year since she had a pool, she enjoyed entertaining family and friends. Her annual July 4th pool party was her favorite. Another day she looked forward to was Saint Patrick's Day. She looked forward to seeing old friends and wearing her collection of shamrock jewelry and clothing, beginning with breakfast with her former co-workers, then attending the parade and enjoying a Michelob Ultra or two with her family.
She valued her family and her friends and stayed active her entire life, she was loved by everyone that knew her, and she loved them back. We were blessed to be part of her family and we will miss her in ways that can't be conveyed by words.
