I am the first great grandchild Of Francis F. Paris. She has always been a strong willed woman. I cherrished the last few years that she was alive when she moved to St. Louis. She was closer to the family and it was always a gift to see her. She loved to sit and relax and watch all the kids play at Aunt Steph’s house. One minute she was hungry, the next she was full. She repeated herself time after time, but it always was a question I didn’t mind answering, or a statment I didn’t mind hearing. When she would talk to me she would always squeeze my hand and make me feel loved. She was an amazing woman and I am glad she lived a long, wonderful life. I know she would be proud of every single family member and I know she is in a better place watching over us all. I am extreamly happy was able to make it as far as she could. Great Grandma kept it real for 96 years! Go Grams. I love you!
