Frances P. Boyle

Frances was born in Asoria, NY oneebruary 13, 1925; as every year the celebration of her birth preceded Valentine's Day, she modeled the gift of love that she gave to all in abundance. With her husband of 60 years, Francis, she devoted her life to her four children and seven grandchildren. As the requirements of raising children eventually allowed her more time she gave generously to her Catholic Church. She was a long time voluneer at St. Joseph's Manor in Trumbull, CT, an active participant of her parish, Christ the King Church, and a consistent contributor to many causes including the Maryknoll Sisters. Each of her children are graduates of Fairfield Uneersity with a number of her grandchildren also continuing in the Catholic tradition attending Fairfield Uneersity, College of Holy Cross, and Georgetown Uneersity. Frances is survived by her husband, Francis C. Boyle, Sr., her son, Francis C. Boyle, Jr. of Trumbull, CT; and her three daughters, Kerrie Boyle of Chapel Hill, NC, Coleen Boyle of Atlanta, GA, and Marita Boyle of Marshfield, MA.
