Frances was admired by her fellow Creative Writers for her determination to attend our regular meetings in spite of issues with ill health and for her talent for writing brilliant witty humorous pieces. she was a strong supporter of several animal welfare organisations and health charities, often raising funds through her clever knitting. She entertained us with her clear memories of mid-twentieth century Newport and its shops. She was an entertaining and good friend to us, and we miss her. RIP Frances. We will always remember you with a smile and treasure your stories and poems.
