Frances A. (Clark) Curtis age 97, of Ashley and formerly of St. Johns, passed away February 23, 2020 at Ashley Care Center.  The daughter of Raymond & Mae Josephine (Roberts) Clark, she was born on February 28, 1929  in Charlotte.  On May 1, 1948 in California, she married Dewey C.

Frances graduated from Charlotte High School and after marrying Dewey, they made their homes in Michigan, California, Florida, and eventually settled back in Michigan.  Frances will be lovingly remembered for her great sense of humor and quick wit.

She was preceded in death by her two husbands; a sister, Bunny; and a grandson, Kipp.  She will be forever remembered by her three children, Douglas DeVine of Marshall, Jeri Gabriel of California, and Jayne Orns of Battle Creek; six grandchildren, Brad, Kelli, Dustin, Jason, Jaime, and Derek; ten great-grandchildren; two sisters, Beatrice and Mary Jane; and several nieces, nephews and many special friends.
