My Dearest Fran,
It has been so hard for all of us not to have you here in
our lives. We know you are with us everyday looking down at us with those beautiful brown
eyes. We think about you all the time . Your short life impacted so many people and will
continue through all your writings.
I really needed you this past month and I prayed to you
everyday to watch over me when I was pregnant. Fran , you answered my prayers, even though
it was a very difficult and frightful pregnancy, I knew that the baby would be O.K.
because he had you as his special angel. Baby Brennen Francis was born two months early on
Feb 29,00 weighing in at 4lbs 8oz. When I heard him cry for the first time I felt such a
sense of relief and I looked up and said thank you Fran and thank you God. Brennen is
doing well and I know he will have a wonderful life because he has you as his angel.
Fran, I love you with all my heart and miss you. I found
this poem and it really sums up the way I feel, so here it is:
If tears could build a stairway,
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
to bring you home again,
No farewells were spoken,
No time to say Good-bye,
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why,
My heart still aches in sadness,
and my secret tears still flow,
What it meant to lose you
NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW!!
Fran , please watch over Daddy, Mommy and your twin
Mickey. They all really need you right now. I love you honey.
Hugs and kisses
always and forever,
