I’m so sorry to hear of the loss of my Aunt Fran. Our families shared many wonderful times over the years that I can remember from way back when I was small. From climbing the big hill behind her house outside of Plainwell, the family reunions in Cadillac, to the trips to Waukegan with her and my mom, (her sister Laura) to visit their other sister Brete, (Alice) were times that I will never forget. Rest in peace Fran, you will be missed!
