Our hearts go out in love and sympathy to Jim and family in the sad passing of Fran. She was a beautiful person and dear friend from our years in New York.
May her love for all of you be a measure of comfort as you begin the healing process.
God bless you all.
Love,
Al & Judy Coraggio

Fran will be missed. She was a dear friend and a terrific secretary and coworker.
We worked together for 36 years. Never had a bad word between us.
She always made me feel like part of her family.Jim was a great husband. Her daughter Debbie was like the daughter I never has. The boys, Jimmy and John were terrific kids.
Fran is at peace and with God now. Fran, I'll never forget you. Thank you for being a part of my life for so long. Rest in Peace my friend.

I am so very sadden and sorry about Aunt Fran's passing. I am thinking of all of you Uncle Jim, Jim, Deb and John and your families. Some of my earlies loving family memories are of your mom - she was a very loving and kind person. Words can not express how sorry I am- you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I read of a man who stood to speak
at the funeral of a friend.
He referred to the dates on her tombstone
from the beginning ...to the end.
He noted that first came the date of her birth
and spoke of the following date with tears,
but he said what mattered most of all
was the dash between those years.
For that dash represents all the time
that she spent alive on earth
and now only those who loved her
know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not, how much we own,
the cars...the house...the cash.
What matters is how we live and love
and how we spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard;
are there things you'd like to change?
For you never know how much time is left
that can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
to consider what's true and real
and always try to understand
the way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger
and show appreciation more
and love the people in our lives
like we've never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect
and more often wear a smile...
remembering that this special dash
might only last a little while.
So when your eulogy is being read
with your life's actions to rehash,
would you be proud of the things they say
about how you spent your dash?
