This is Frances' high school graduation picture. Francis is one of the essential people at the Dallas Jewish Historical Society. She adds humor, grace, and wisdom during our board meetings -- that's when we need it most.

Others just know Francis as the dedicated, charming woman with the still saucy smile who greets and assists those who come to the Societies Archive Room.

We are presently trying to get Frances to tell us the story behind the smile in the photo.
