She helped him for many years run his business, Godeau and Martinoni Funeral Home. He preceded her in death on July 24, 2000.

Frances was a loving wife, mother and grandmother. She was a devoted volunteer, working for over 25 years, primarily in Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center in various departments. Her red hair, bright smile and sparkling personality won many hearts and she sought to share the love of Chrsit at every turn.
