Frances most enjoyed family gathering on weekends and holidays and delighted in vacation travel with Dominick, family and friends.  After many years as a homemaker Frances became a Teacher Aide for the Amityville School District.  During her 23 year career she developed a love and respect for students and staff and they in turn loved and respected Frances.  Frances was the coordinator, founder and President of the Amityville Teacher Aide union.
