Fran was a proud member of Labors Local Union 846 in Chattanooga. She spoke often of her work at Sequoyah and Watts Bar and all of the friendships she had made during the years. Her weekend outings at the Bakewell Flea Market, with Chris, Jeff, Albert and so many others, was her favorite pastime and hobby.
The love and devotion that she had for her grandson, Steven, will be always be remembered. Her sister, Linda, will never forget their morning coffee on the front porch as they planned the day. Her bird feeders are empty.....for now.
She will greatly missed by her children, family and friends, but her presence will remain with us forever...
