It has been a real pleasure working with you all these years. You truly were one in a million. I will miss the times when we used to put the world to rights, we would have been unstoppable Fran! You were formidable and funny in equal measures, a rarity. Now it is time for you to rest, you beautiful person x

Fran has been my friend since we were around 3 years old. We had so much fun together. Fran was always up for a laugh, and we plotted many adventures at her house. In fact, it was often her parents who bailed us out of the mischief we got into! Her chosen profession suited her totally; loving, caring and helping others. She has been a steady rock; both practical and brave. Fran took everything in her stride and was never fazed when things got tough. I will miss her friendship dearly. May she rest in peace.
