My uncle Dean touched up a couple of my grandma Fran's portraits...one of herself and another of my grandpa Don...and made them available on the internet.

    

Fran passed away in Concord, CA in the fall of '97, the year I graduated and moved to California. I consider myself lucky to have seen her those last six months. Don passed away in Seattle two years ago.

A talented artist, Francis was an inspiration to her entire family. It's great to see a few of Fran's paintings in high-res.
