My deepest sympathy for the loss of Frances. She was kind and cared about other people. She had a sense of humor and would always make me laugh. She loved her little chihauhau Peaches, and they had a special bond. Peaches came to live with me when Frances moved out of her house, and I fell in love with her too. I will always have good memories of Frances - she was a special lady. It was a blessing knowing her and a blessing to have Peaches. Love, Heather Marlowe

To the Blanton family: I was so sorry to hear about Frances. I remember her well, from our days at Rutledge Avenue Baptist. May you find comfort in the wonderful memories you have of her.

To the Family of Mrs. Frances Quattlebaum Butler I met your love one many years ago. She and my mother Sadiebell worked at Silvers Five and Ten. During the holidays I use to work in the stockroom. Sometimes I use to help Mrs.Quattlebaum ( her mother) around the house.
MAY THE MEMORIES OF HER HELP COMFORT YOU, AND MAY THEY LIVE FOREVER IN YOUR HEARTS. You are in my prayers.
