During her working years, Frances was a dedicated and loyal employee who worked for General Motors for over 31 years, most of those years at the Fisher Body Plant in Livonia Michigan and later at General Motors Tech Center in the accounting and finance department.
Frances loved to cook for her family and enjoyed shopping, bowling, garage sales and crafting. She also loved traveling back to Tennessee to visit with family and friends.

Upon her retirement, she and Ed moved back to Cookeville where she volunteered at Washington Avenue Baptist church, which she always loved. Following Ed’s death, Frances returned to Michigan to be nearer to her children and grandchildren.
