I had always wanted to find Fran, I had looked in the past just to find her and tell her what she meant to me. Never had someone believe in me as much as her and I’m sure not many people even know what she did do for me. She fought for me to be released from prison in 2001. She found every avenue possible and exhausted every single one. She believed that much in me. And one day it happened, we both shared that happy moment and I never let her down. I wanted to share with her what I had done and how life did turn out. Once I was released I went to school, and own 3 successful companies that employs 32 employees. With Fran always in the back of my mind driving me to do better. I’ll never forget her and wished I found her a year sooner. I love ya Fran and thank you for being as caring as you was. Truly Amazing human. Thank you

Frannie was my teammate at Illinois State University. She was a freshman in my sophomore year.
I so remember Sterling High School as the first IHSA state girls championship and how she led the team to that exciting victory.
At Illinois state her smile was infectious and she always made road trips so much fun as she had us laughing all the time.
Rest in peace Frannie.

Fran was a great coach and person!!! I was fortunate enough to have her as my basketball coach for 2 years. She made playing basketball fun but worked us hard. She will be greatly missed. Condolences go out to her family.
