Remembering dear Frances. Her beautiful smile and personality and lovely nature.
The many happy times at Glendue Bay and Dunedin JC days.
I remember Frances as being such a loving mother to Kelvin, Tony and Malcolm. A fun person.
Remembered always.

My sympathy to Tony, Kelvin & Malcolm, My children played with you boys when we lived in Rawhiti St and you were growing up in Marama St. Paul, Andrew & Liam Claringbold.
Frances was the sweetest lady & friend while we lived in Dunedin

Dear Aunty Frances, never again will I see those crinkly, twinkly blue eyes so like Nana Mac's. Your eyes were a reminder of my Dad's too. Always a mischievous smile as you embarked on one of your many family stories that kept us all spellbound. Did you ever think to write those stories down.
I'm sure there will be a huge welcome for you as you reunite with the loved ones who have gone before you.
To Tony, Kelvin, Malcolm and families, may the many memories you have of your precious Mum comfort you and wrap you in love.
Rest in Peace and Love Aunty Frances.
With love to you all
Barbara
