Mary Frances Daniels was born on May 25, 1945, to the late Charlie and Tyra Daniels in Baconton, Georgia.  She confessed CHRIST at an early age and joined Mt. Calvary Baptist Church, where she served faithfully until her final day.  She was a woman of great strength, character, and wisdom.  She never met a stranger and was known near and far for her love, kindness, joy, laughter, friendliness, and her smile.  She was very outgoing and fun to be around.  She was an avid sports fan and enjoyed cheering on her favorite teams, especially the MBHS Eagles.

Frances attended Camilla Consolidated School, graduating in the dynamic class of 1963.  As a devoted mother, she worked to ensure that her children and grandchildren were cared for.  She loved her family unconditionally and cherished every precious moment.  She was employed at Nut Tree Pecan Company for over 20 years, among many other places.  She loved singing and was a member of various choirs over the years, including Baconton Community Choir, Mt.
