Frances Loretta Bollman was born March 4, 1939, in Luana, IA, the daughter of Carlton F. and Helen L. (Hamm) Jones. As a very young girl she lived in a variety of places as the family moved for her father's work. Frances attended the Sixteen rural school and graduated from Waterville High School. On June 13, 1958, she married LeRoy C. Bollman at the Monona Methodist Church. Roy and Fran farmed in the Monona area during 1959 and 1960. Fran worked at the button factory in Lansing, IA, and then for many years at Northern Engraving in both Lansing and Waukon, retiring in 2007.
Clamming, mushroom hunting, playing cards, and working jigsaw puzzles were some of her favorite pastimes. Her homemade bread and rolls, chicken noodle soup, and other baked goods were family favorites she loved to share. She loved country music and Fran and Roy enjoyed a couple of special trips to Branson, MO, and Nashville, TN. Above all else she loved spending time with her family.
