Frances Ellen Poole was born into life on March 29, 1954, in Greenville, Alabama. Frances has always been a happy, energetic, outgoing person. Her contagious laughter, raw honesty and joke telling lifted everyone that she met.
Our beautiful Mother was extremely educated, earning a Bachelors Degree in Criminal Justice. She was limitless and would take on almost anything. Our Mother was also a beautiful dancer, teaching dance classes to young ladies in the community.
Our Queen, our Matriarch was born into Eternity on April 11, 2021. She fought until the very end. We know in our hearts that our Mother was making every attempt to get to us but God had a better plan. Our dear Mother’s earthly assignment was complete, and she did an excellent job. Queen, you are simply amazing! Thank you for your sacrifices. Thank you for giving us a life that was truly set apart. To God be the Glory!
