Frances was a devoted wife and mother. She was a parishioner and Eucharistic 
minister at Holy Family Catholic Church and Annunziata Catholic Church.
In the years before her passing, she was cared for by her loving husband, who 
provided for her every need as he doted on his "darling". They were a picture 
of love and dedication. The family has so many fond memories of her love, 
guidance and affection. Her house was a place of love, comfort and joyous 
times. While everyone in the family will certainly remember the holiday 
gatherings, each of us will mostly cherish their special quiet times with her 
when she imparted wisdom, congratulations and a comforting shoulder to cry on. 
The family will miss her dearly.

Chauvin Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
