I can never forget Francine's genuine smile and gentle spirit.  I first met Francine as one of the representatives from the employee support program at orientation (which I coordinated).   Always enjoyed our talks.   When I needed some personal support for a family crisis (during COVID) I was assigned to her.   I was so blown away by her knowledge and experience.  She was exactly what I and my family needed at the time.  I continued personal counseling with her, especially as I approached retirement.  I am so grateful for the time that I had with her.   I still go over my notes.   Her support was so gentle and yet powerful.   I carry her strength and gentleness in my heart.  What a treasure she was.

I had the privilege of knowing Francine as a colleague and as a counselor through work (Loma Linda University Health).  She became my ‘gentle angel of mercy’ during a family crisis. Through her guidance she helped me to identify my own strengths and resources. I still have notes from her “nuggets of wisdom” that I reference on tough days.  I feel so grateful to have known her.

Auntie Francine was like a godmother to our family after the passing of our own mother, as well as a valuable member of the Harvest MoVal Small Group. She would always greet you with a smile, resolve conflicts amongst us, and keep a positive attitude up. I will greatly miss her presence and attitude towards her faith and loving others. A unique God-fearing woman like no other. She's now rejoicing in Heaven with our mother, and no doubt we'll be seeing her again when we get there :))

Francine, such a dear friend, Spiritual Mother, and Woman of God. This was photo was taken a few years ago, 5k Run through Redlands, my sister took this, myself, Francine, my nephew and my parents are seen as well. Such a loving wonderful woman sharing her love for Jesus as always.

This is a small portion of people who were blessed by Francine. She was truly a reflection of Christ to us all!

My first met Francine @ Harvest Christian Fellowship Church back in February 2019 when I was waving a banner to recruit new members to kick start Harvest Small Group Bible Study.  Together with my wife Ally, Francine, Mary Villa (not in photo) they called themselves the Original Girls (OG) and and together with Robert, and myself as the Original Gangs, in short together we became very close friend/s.  Francine is the organizer, the planner together with Rosie (not in photo)  for every event of the group and the Counselor and many times a mediator for the group.  Together we go out and do outreach to minister to people hand out Bibles, Clothes, Prayed and Shared the Gospel to people.   I will never forget on every Friday meetings that Francine either brings Stater Brothers Chicken or an EL Pollo Loco with enthusiasm and excitement.   I truly believe when Francine is on the Realm of Eternity and saw the Heavenly Beauty of my Wife Ally,  Francine did not had a 2nd Thought but to join Ally with the Lord Jesus Christ in His Kingdom.  We love you Sister Francine, We miss you Already!

As Francine would say "the 3 OGs" of the Moreno Valley small group bible study.

I greatly miss her.  I won't forget her smile and laughter. She always said her and I were the OGs of our small group @ Harvest😃.  She would ask me who was bringing the Stater Bros fried chicken to the study? She knew I would and she brought El Pollo Loco.  ❤️. Memories that last forever 😥.

I am deeply saddened to hear about Francine. I worked with her and sat next to her at AT&T Yellow pages. She would make me laugh and gave me strength. I remember one day, I had made a letter to terminate my employment and had put letter on my manager's desk. Francine told me, you get back in there and grab that letter before manager sees it! She knew what was best! So I retrieved my letter lol. I had moved to AZ in 2016 and she came out to AZ for Harvest Fest and  we got to visit. She took me to Harvest Fest in Glendale AZ. I moved back to CA and was in Kohls not long ago and I saw Francine! I went up to her and what a great surprise! She had no idea I was back in CA. I thought she had moved out of state and she said no, but she was going to start traveling to see what state she might want to live in. She will be truly missed. I just can't believe this. She looked amazing when I saw her. Such a beautiful lady with a heart of gold. May she rest in peace. My prayers and condolences to her family. 🙏

Francine and I have been friends since junior high school. We attended high school and junior college together. She was the godmother of my eldest daughter, Angela. I will never forget her loving kindness and the precious memories we shared. Her love of the Lord eluded from her being. I will never forget her or her family. Love always, Carolyn.
