Francoise retired as an administrator for Sears after 35 proud and happy years. She was a devout Catholic and was a faithful member of St. Damian in Westland for 60 years until it closed. She is currently a member of St. Kenneth Catholic Church in Plymouth. In her retirement, she moved to Florida and made tons of friends. Francoise was on a golf league and made two hole-in-one's in her lifetime; one in Florida and the other in Michigan. She enjoyed playing cards and listening to all music, especially Willie Nelson. She loved to eat, but was a terrible cook. Francoise loved the beach and enjoyed listening to a gospel music band that played on the beach every week. The members of the band got to know her so well, that they played for her at her bedside before her passing. She had a beautiful smile and a huge heart. Francoise will be missed by all who knew her. From Michigan all the way to Florida, there are broken hearts.

Francoise's family will receive friends for a Memorial Gathering at St. Kenneth Catholic Church in Plymouth on Friday, June 2, 2023 at 11:00am until the time of the Mass at 12:30pm.
