Fran was very devoted to her faith, church and family. She always kept in touch with her extended family and friends from Pennsylvania, Greenpoint, NY, Pembroke Pines, FL and Palm Coast, FL. She had a tireless work ethic, made friends easily, loved to tease and poke fun of herself, family and friends. She embraced life and loved to laugh, dance (especially to polkas), Sunday car rides and to shop.
She was very proud of her Polish heritage and had a great sense of humor. A smart, tough and driven woman, Fran worked for Nolan Brown Cadillac and various retail establishments retiring before her move to Palm Coast from Macy’s (previously Burdines).
It was amazing that she knew people wherever she went. She always engaged those she knew as well as strangers. She loved to chat with everyone. Because she was special, she made others feel special. Fran belonged to several church and community groups including the Am Guild, Pennsylvania Club, Knights of Columbus, Ladies Auxiliary, Adoration & Legion of Mary.
