The Bakersfield Californian 
Frances Arriola
Oct. 4, 1931 Nov. 29, 2004

Services: Sat., Dec. 4, 11 a.m. 

Graveside services will be held at Greenlawn Southwest Cemetery, 2739 Panama 
Lane, Bakersfield on Saturday, December 4, 2004 at 11:00 a.m. for Frances 
Arriola, 73, of Bakersfield, CA. Frances was an extraordinary woman, a devoted 
mother, grandmother and friend who passed away peacefully November 29, 2004 at 
her home in Bakersfield.

Frances was born October 4, 1931 in Bakersfield. She met her future husband 
here in Bakersfield and on October 29, 1950 she married Arthur Bonilla 
Arriola. She was employed by Bakersfield Memorial Hospital and enjoyed working 
there until she retired after 30 years of service. Her retirement allowed her 
time to become involved with her grandchildrens many sports activities. She 
will be remembered for her infectious laugh, her generosity, kindness and her 
sense of humor.

Nothing was more important to Frances than her family. She is preceded in 
death by Arthur, her husband of 31 years. She is survived by her children, 
eldest son and daughter-in-law, Arthur John and Nadine Louise Arriola and 
their children, Arthur John III and Alicia Jene Arriola; her daughter and son-
in-law, Nancy Ann and Steven Kenneth Shelton and their sons, Chad Robert, Todd 
Steven, and Bret David Shelton and her younger son and daughter-in-law, Ricky 
David and Diana Gail Arriola and their sons, Adam David, Blake Vincent, and 
Vincent Michael Arriola all of Bakersfield; two brothers, Ray Soto and Angel 
Cervantes also of Bakersfield and three sisters, Beatrice Avila of Bakersfield 
and Evelyn Velverda and Carrie Quintana of Visalia, CA.

Thank you to Toni Hernandez, Angie Garriot, and Rosie Flint for their staunch 
support and loving care for Frances throughout her life and during her last 
illness, and to her friends the Mall Walkers who shared their tears and 
laughter with her these last few years. Special thanks to Kyle Ray and Tiffany 
Porter of Optimal Hospice for their tender care of Frances.

Thank you to family and friends for all your many expressions of support and 
prayers.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that donations be made to Optimal 
Hospice.

Frances was a beautiful person.

She will be remembered with great love.
