Frances and her family reside in a home on Car- verton Road in Trucksville. Since home, her husband Lee has done alot of remodeling which has resulted in a lovely home. Lee recently closed in the front porch and is now in the process of installing a fireplace in that room. Natural wood siding enhances the front of the house. The Williams household consists of, in addition to Frances and Lee, their children, Elizabeth, who is Westmoreland Elementary School; Lee, who is seven, and a student at Trucksville Elementary School; and David, who is 15 months old. A visit with grandma is always fun, and the Williams’ children can ‘visit their grandma anytime since Frances’ mother Mrs. Estelle Gray, a former elementary school teacher, also resides with them. Frances was raised in Niagara, N.Y. She is a graduate of Lewiston- Porter High School, and Niagara University with a degree in nursing. Although she previously nurse, Frances said she is with her growing children until they are all in school. Raised in Philadelphia, Lee is ‘a graduate of Central Catholic High School in that city.

Lee holds a brown belt in Karate, and is also in- terested in judo, wood- working and swimming. The Williams family attend Gate of Heaven Church in Dallas. Summer is an especially busy time for Frances because she cans and freezes alot of vegetables from the Williams’ garden. Last summer she canned about 40 different kinds of pickles, and 60 quarts of tomatoes in addition to various other vegetables. A summertime treat in the Williams’ home is Frances’ recipe for tomato olive salad. Frances says that this combination of vegetables and seasonings must be chilled at least six hours to insure a good flavor. If marinated meats are a favorite at your. house Frances has submitted two excellent ‘recipes. Marinated flank steak combines scallions, soy sauce, - olive’ “oil,” thyme, oregano, tobasco sauce, and lemon juice and flank steak into a delicious dinnertime specialty. Sauerbraten is a dish usually found in restaurants. It takes rather a long time to prepare since the meat must soak in the brine for four days. After cooking, it is served over noodles. For a satisfying dessert Frances has given us a cheesecake recipe that is rich and mouthwatering. Try it sometime soon.
