Dear Sandy, Debbie and Rick, I am so sorry to hear of your Mom passing. All the Blair family send their thoughts and prayers to you and your families.
I worked with Fran at IBM. She was always a lovely lady. May she rest in peace.
Sandy, Deb and Rick, so sorry for your loss. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers.
Sandra, Debbie and Richard. Back in the late 50′s and early 60′s I was your babysitter. Just wanted to express my sorrow at your loss. Your Mom (and Dad) were such nice people and I always took pride in the fact tht they trusted me with their precious children. May your Mom rest in peace.
Mrs Agronick was wonderful and I wish I had more memories of her. She will be missed at our families gatherings!
Love,
Amber
Sandy, Deb and Rick,
I have gotten to know your mom very well over the last 10 years. She was great lady. She loved the Newport Creamery, Garden City and the Red Sox, but most of all she loved you all and wished her children much happiness. She loved me and I her. I will miss her dearly. Rest In Peace.
Your mom and the entire AGRONICK FAMILY HAVE A VERY SPECIAL AND IMPORTANT PART OF MY LIFE for over 40 years of my life. Fran was center of everything involving her children. Everyone who were lucky enough to know her considered Fran a best friend. I have a tradition for over 30 years of calling her on SEPT. 8th to wish her a HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!! NEW TRADITION: Closing my eyes on SEPT. 8th and without a phone just whispering HAPPY BIRTHDAY. I KNOW SHE WILL HEAR ME.
I was sad to hear that we had lost dear Fran. I worked with her for several years at IBM. She had a great sense of humor. She later became a companion of Dickie Lubin, a fellow member of Potowomut Golf Club. They made a wonderful couple in their latter years. Rest in peace Fran. The Lord is getting a good one!
To Sandy and the rest of the family: Elaine and I had lots of fun with Fran and her companion Dickie Lubin. I recall the time when she jumped into our pool fully clothed. Rest in peace, Fran !!
Deb, Sandy & Rick,

Your mom was loved by many and will be missed.

Sending my heartfelt condolences and love to the Agronick family.
Please know that so many friends and family members are adding their strength to yours during this very difficult time. May your Mom’s memory be a beautiful blessing.
Deb, Sandy and Rick, so sorry to hear of the passing of Mom. We had just reconnected with her at Newport Creamery before this pandemic. We are grateful for that. Please know you have our sincere sympathies.
My heart aches for you Sandy, Debbie and Rick. I hope that your mom and my dad are sitting next to each other on the couch, the crossword puzzle on the table as they talk about us behind our backs. Your sorta-sister, Zip
I am so sorry for your loss. The world has lost a beautiful, caring soul. I will miss her.
Deb,
It has been difficult for me to find any appropriate words of condolence. I have so many, many fond memories of your beautiful mother. I know that not only were you so lucky to have her but, she was so lucky to have you! I hope her spirit, vitality and beauty live on in you and give you comfort!
I can’t believe that a year has passed and there is not a day that goes by that I don’t think if you. Love and miss you❤️
Dear Sandy, Debbie and Ricky,
I just read your mom’s obituary and it was a reminder to me of how time passes so quickly. Seems like not long ago we were all growing up onRhodes Ave and playing in the street. I think of those times fondly. We were all at each other’s houses and everyone got along…wish the world was like that now.
And now, I wish you all peace and happiness and calm…and I apologize for bring years late with this message
