Frankie was a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished sister, grandmother, great-grandmother, and great-great-grandmother. She was the proud mother of five children, grandmother of twenty-one, great-grandmother of fifty-seven, and great-great-grandmother of forty-three. Her greatest joy was caring for her family and supporting them in every way possible.
