Frances Marie Back, 86, of Bellville, died Friday evening January 26, 2007 in Winchester Terrace following a long period of failing health. Born March 31, 1920 in Mount Vernon, she was the daughter of Fred and Marie (Spriggins) Greene. She grew up in Mount Vernon and Bellville, and graduated from Bellville High School in 1938.
She married Carl A. Back on November 28, 1945 and had lived in the Bellville area for the last 70 years.
Mrs. Back was a longtime member of the Bellville Presbyterian Church.
She enjoyed children, especially babies, and spent lots of quality time with her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She leaves her family with many memories of time spent together. Frances also loved animals. Besides many farm animals, plus cats and dogs, she turned numerous wild animals into pets. She and Carl raised pedigree rabbits and showed them successfully for many years. She also loved gardening and the more exotic the plant the better. Frances much preferred the unusual to the ordinary. Mrs. Back also loved to read; hungrily consuming historical novels and mysteries.
She suffered from rheumatoid arthritis for most of her lifetime and handled it with patience and grace.
