It’s fun to remember special times and special people. Fran was one of those special people. This is a look back at six years ago and Fran’s St. Pat’s Day lunch. Fran’s luncheons were always a treat and the March get-together was no exception. St. Patrick’s Day was the theme so tables were decked in […]
