Channing-Murray Foundation
We Invite Members and Friends of Channing-Murray who knew and loved
Fran to join us in remembering her on January 5th at 2 p.m.
Fran Bond Turquette passed on November 6th in the home of her daughter
in Batavia, IL. Fran was a beloved member of the Channing-Murray
foundation who visited on an almost weekly basis for a women's lunch
and often attended plays and other cultural events hosted at the
Channing-Murray Foundation. She loved the Foundation's rich history and
was especially committed to preserving the historical integrity of the
building itself. To the staff of Channing-Murray Foundation, Fran was a
spark in each of our days, engaging in witty banter with Red Herring
employees and C-M Staff alike. Her weekly visits are deeply missed!
Her obituary was published in the News-Gazette on November 18th. In
addition, a number of lovely sentiments and anecdotes have been shared
on the guest book being maintained by the family.
