    I certainly hate to hear this sad news! Ms Francis was such a Wonderful Friend! She was one of the sweetest ladies and always was ready to hear an update on our family! I loved her very much and will be praying for her children, including Eric & John, and all their families! Also the remainder of family and all her many friends! Please let Debby and I know if we can do anything! Love!
