She was an active woman and was a member of the YMCA and the swim center in Valdese. Frankie was known for her caring nature, and she had served as a caregiver to many in her family.

Jack and Leslie (my husband) went fishing together and Frankie and I were best of friends. We were the same age. I will see her in our new home which is Heaven.She will be missed’ .

Frankie was one of my mom, Eunice Suddreth’s best friends. They worked together for many years and enjoyed traveling together after both being widowed. Up until recently, my mom looked forward to their weekly lunch at AJ’s and a trip to The Dollar Store. Frankie meant the world to my mom and will be dearly missed.
