Comment: Sandra and I were saddened to hear of Fran's departure, but glad to know that she is safe in our heavenly Father's care. Our deepest sympathies to you, Fran's family: sons: Harold and Len; and daughter: Diane; grandchildren: Scott, Kim, Roxanne, Mireille, Tanya, Pam and Kayla; and great-grandchildren, Maggie, Gabrielle, Reed, Isaac, Courtney, Megan, Justyne, Vianne, Hilton, Jamie and Rebecca; along with sister Marguerite; and brothers, Raymond and Ralph. The poet wrote: What must it be like to step on shore, and find it - heaven; To take hold of a hand, and find it - God's To breathe new air, and find it - celestial; To feel invigorated, and find it - immortality; To rise from the care, the loneliness, and the turmoil of earth Into an unbroken calm; and find it - glory? May the God of all comfort be with you in your sorrow!
