More Sad News…

Today when I got home from work I talked to my Dad who informed me that Fran passed away today. Fran and her husband Edmund (cousin to my Grandmother Theresa and Great-Uncle Richard) hosted a great Christmas party every year, as far back as I can remember, that my family would attend. I really looked forward to that party every Christmas. I enjoyed talking to Fran and Edmund and being in their home. I always felt welcome there. I remember one of the last partys in their old house in Attleboro where Grandpa Rick brought his Karaoke equipment and everyone got a chance to sing. Great-Uncle Richard sang Jambolaya(sp) and we all had a great time.

Fran was a very beautiful, kind, funny and caring woman, she made everyone feel at home. She was especially nice to Allison and her passing was a great shock to us. Every time we saw Fran she was very excited for, and asked about, our upcoming wedding. We are both very sad that Fran will not be there. We will certainly miss you Fran. You touched our lives with your kindness. Our prayers are with you and Great-Uncle Richard and our family during this time of loss.
