Frances worked in the office at the Coop Fish Plant for a few years and then later spent many years working on the BC and Alaska Ferries.
Frances was an avid bowler, reader and in later years was part of the nifty-fifties walking club. She was also in the Daughters of the Nile for many years and really enjoyed her luncheons with the ladies, spending time with family and travelling.
We would like to send a Special Thank You to all the Staff at Acropolis Manor (West Pod) for their genuine care and compassion given to Frances and her family.
Frances will be deeply missed but never forgotten, thanks to all the wonderful memories of her.
There will be no service as per her request.
