In loving memory of Frances Moore KELLY
May 3, 1941 – November 17, 2020
A year has passed since you left, but it seems like yesterday that you were here with us, sharing stories, laughing and loving. We miss you but feel you are always in our hearts.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we had decided to postpone the funeral for Frances. A celebration of life will be held at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Quebec City on Saturday, November 13, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. EST. If you are unable to attend in person but would like to attend virtually, please send an email to her daughter, Chantal (csantin@hotmail.com) for a private Zoom link.
