Frances Elizabeth Willard was my grandmother. Frances was the second child of 11 born to her parents. She had a very poor up bringing and had to help raise her siblings becauase her mother was a sickly woman. She had to quit school in her early years so ahe could help around the house. Frances Married Thomas Willard and over the course of their marriage they had 3 children; Rita, Patricia and my dad, Paul. Her children were the light of her life. She then eventually had 8 grandchildren, 17 great grandchildren (currently) and 11 great great grandchildren (currently). When I say the light of her life was her children that light got brighter with her grand children and even brighter with the great frand babies. As of this month she would have been 106 years old, I can't even imagine how bright that light would be with all her beautiful great great grandbabies. Our grandmother was one of the most amazing women ever. She was "that" grandma that every kid should get to have and experience. She was the most loving granny ever and my very best friend of all time, I miss her each and every day!
