    The kindest, most value-driven person I’ve ever met, Fran made the world a better place in everyday acts of beauty.

    Fran changed a big part of my life when she brought me into Wild Ones and the concept of ‘healing the earth one yard at a time’. She continued to be an important influence, sharing unconditional love and a passion for making the world a better place. I miss her.

    So sorry to hear this news. Fran was such a soft spoken and gentle person while having a steel core of inner strength. Her devotion to conservation and her garden were an inspiration. She will be missed.

    Fran was a kind soul who didn’t know a stranger. We had such a fun time working together, figuring out the church office, sharing many laughs. I will never forget her laugh or her wonderful, loving hugs. I miss my friend terribly.

    Fran was a devoted member of Kindred UCC and I can honestly say I don’t know if we would have survived the past few years without her. She was an example of quiet giving and an inspiration to us all. Frannie, I miss you so much.

    I met Fran years ago. So sorry to hear of her passing. I hope to hear of her memorial.
