I met Fran many years ago when I joined the curling league at Deer Lodge. She immediately stood out because of her great sense of humor and her love of curling! I was fortunate enough to be on her team several times and appreciated her excellent shot-making and strategies! How I will miss that smiling face and ready laugh...it won't be the same without you Frannie...RIP Kathy - Posted by: Kathy Scott (Curling Friend) on: Jul 21, 2014

How shocked and saddened we were to hear of Fran's sudden passing. We learned of it only today, having just returned from B.C. We will miss her greatly and times at the cottage just won't be the same without her cheery welcomes and watching her enjoy her cottage and yard. Our deepest condolences go to her family at this saddest of times. - Posted by: Mary and Jerry Ross (Next door neighbours at Lakeshore Heights) on: Jul 17, 2014

I did not see my aunt enough but when I did laughter, smiles and often dancing was involved. She was one of the "outlaws" my mom would say with the deepest affection . A bright light has been lost. My deepest sympathies to her children. - Posted by: Wendy Waters (Niece ) on: Jul 14, 2014

I have curled with Fran for several years and she adapted to new ways of playing the game. She became a wicked stick thrower! I have her curling gear and will have it available for you at the service. Fran will be greatly missed by our team. Karen - Posted by: Karen Dewar (Curling buddy) on: Jul 12, 2014
