Francine Haney
Francine Coffey Haney, 85, a resident of Cleveland, was born in Wetmore, Tn., and passed to her heavenly home surrounded by her loving family on January 27, 2018.
She was a faithful member of First Baptist Church and considered it a joy serving others: by teaching, cooking, event decorating, and giving of her time to family and friends. God blessed her with the gift of seeing the needs of others and acting upon it. Traveling and shopping, gardening, and spending time with her family and friends were some of the great joys in her life.
