For many years, Frances worked as a cook in nearly every local restaurant, and later was employed as the housekeeping supervisor at Kaukauna Community Hospital. Many will remember her for her love of playing cards, especially sheephead, as well as watching football and WWF wrestling matches. Some of her greatest joys came from watching her children and grandchildren grow and attending their various events.

Frances is also survived by a brother: Paul (Roberta) Tiseling of Menasha; a sister: Rosemary Cleveland of Sheboygan; and a brother-in-law: Marvin Evers of Little Chute, as well as by numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband in 1976, a sister Bernice Evers, a brother Donald Tiseling, and a brother-in-law Norm Cleveland.
