Obituary Frances Esther Marquez Our family Matriarch decided it was time to go. Frances Esther Marquez, born April 4, 1925, passed away on May 20, 2014 at 11:54pm. Her daughter Dodie, as always, was by her side. There is much to say, and so little space. Loving, wonderful, forgiving, caring, stubborn and funny. Momma leaves a void, filled with memories that only her loved ones will remember. She leaves behind her daughter, Doris "Dodie" Santos; grandchildren, M. Jacob, Rachel, Royce, Sanrica and W.T.; great-grandchildren, Lucas, Jackson (twinkle toes), Joshua, Brena Mae and Alexander Julius; and numerous members of the Marquez family. A gathering will be held to celebrate Frannie's life on Sunday, June 22, 2014 from 12:00pm to 3:00pm at Masa in Tacoma. Please leave online condolences at www.gaffneycares.com.
