Francel grew up on a farm north of St. Paul and attended District No. 36 rural school and graduated from St. Paul High School in 1936. She then attended the St. Paul Business College for one year. After she and Melvin were married they farmed north of St. Paul, Nebraska along Highway 281, for many years. She also worked for Johnson Variety Store in St. Paul, Nebraska for a number of years. Upon their retirement, they spent the winters in Texas for the next ten years. In September 1985, they moved into St. Paul, Nebraska.

Francel moved to Matelyn Retirement Community in Dec. 2008. As she would always say, "how could life be better – we eat, sleep and play cards".

Francel was a member of the United Methodist Church, the United Methodist Women and several card clubs, including the East and West Club. Francel enjoyed crocheting, volunteering at the church and hospital thrift shop, playing bingo and cards. But most of all, were the visits from her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
