Frances was a graduate of Western Kentucky University and held Bachelors, Masters and Rank I degrees. She began her teaching career in Edmonson County, taught in Warren County Schools and retired from Bowling Green City Schools with 40 years of service. She loved her years of teaching and counseling.

She was a member of the Bowling Green Seventh-Day Adventist Church for 47 years; a member of Leitchfield Seventh-Day Adventist Church for five years, and a member of Sandhill Seventh-Day Adventist Church. During these years, she gave much help to the Kentucky/Tennessee Conference. She served on the Educational Committee, visited the schools, and helped with evaluation and programs.

She and Buford loved to travel. They traveled through all 48 states, Mexico, Canada, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia.

Frances leaves to everyone her appreciation for every kindness shown to her and Buford through the years—loving words, smiles and kindnesses too numerous to be recorded. She leaves this world looking forward to greeting you with a joyful hug—never to leave you again.

She leaves behind to cherish her memory several nieces and nephews, their families, her caretakers, many neighbors, and friends. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Hardy & Son Funeral Homes.
