    Frances is a kind, sweet lady. She always was a best friend, cousin to my mother, Louise Clarke Hurt. They had wonderful times together and now they can hang out again. She came to see my mother after she had to come to Richmond to live. I saw her quite often and she was always the smiling, optimistic lady. My deepest sympathy to all the family. She'll always be in our hearts.

    Dear Allen, Shanley, Emily, Amanda, Hunter and Family, We are so sorry to hear of Nanny's passing, but you know she has always been where she needed to be in life for each of you and what a blessing to have had a Mom and Nanny as special as she was. Your memories will be endless and the love that you shared will never be forgotten. She made everybody's life better! She knows that you all will be okay and now she can rest. God Bless each of you and may God grant you peace. Our love to you all!!
