Surviving with her husband, are their three sons and daughters-in-law, Lyman and Lee Hamrick, Wardlaw and Gail Hamrick, and Bob and Kim Hamrick, all of Gaffney; seven grandchildren, Elliott and Sarah Hamrick, Catherine Hampton, Cameron and Addison Hamrick, Robert and Travis Hamrick; one grandson-in-law, Kevin Hampton; one granddaughter-in-law, Jennifer Hamrick; a nephew, Bill Manning of Roswell, GA; a niece, Barbara M.

She leaves behind several current, loving and devoted caregivers and several previous caregivers that assisted her during her illness. Frances was born in Greenville, SC, and was preceded in death by her parents, Augustus Wardlaw Smith and Frances (Poole) Smith; and a sister, Belle (Smith) Manning of Greenville. She was a graduate of Greenville High School and Holton Arms College in Washington, DC and a member of The Junior League of Greenville. Frances moved to Gaffney with her husband in 1950 and became a mother and homemaker.

Frances was a member of First Baptist Church in Gaffney, where she was a longstanding secretary of the Fidelas Sunday School class and an active participant in the Carrie Louise WOM Circle. She enjoyed having her family sit together on Sundays while attending worship and afterwards having dinner together. She was a supportive and loving wife. She reared her sons with devotion and always referred to their wives as her daughters. Each of her grandchildren was especially dear to her. She enjoyed the game of bridge and belonged to two bridge clubs. While enjoying many other social activities, she treasured the time with family during the many birthdays, anniversaries and holidays that they celebrated as a family. Her acts of kindness towards family and friends when they were sick or grieving is one of the many things for which she will be remembered. She was a loving and gentle lady and will be greatly missed.
