Please accept my sympathy at this time of loss. My family used her and Ray's Point Judith cottage for many years and knew the family for many years before that.Everyone thought they were 'the nuns. Whenever I visited Williamstown I stopped to chat with Frankie. My last outstanding visit was before Thanksgiving when Frankie talked about her love for the Lord and really for her family and friends. She and you are all in my prayer.
