The Levy United Methodist Church was the center of her life and the Holy Bible was the guide to how she lived her daily life. She volunteered in her children's schools and was very active in her sons and daughters lives serving as Den Mother and Scout Leader. Frances studied her Bible daily for as long as her health permitted and after each day's study, she would write down what she had learned. At the end of each week, she would bundle up her writings and mail them to the child, grandchild or others who had been placed on her heart and in her prayers most often during that week All were happy to receive "Mama/Nanny's" Daily Jot Downs. Frances was a loving, caring, and giving woman on earth and she will be "Glorified" in heaven. One of her many sayings were "Jesus loves you and I do too".
