McCutcheon, Frances Louise
She is survived by her daughter, Suzanna Bishop and husband Gary of rural Linn County; grandson, Bryan Joseph Bishop and his wife, Amanda Bishop (Coe); along with Frances' great-grandchildren, Lillian Erin Bishop, YeongHo Dennis Bishop and JiSeob Joseph Bishop all of Mount Vernon; her grandson, Stephen Wesley Bishop and his significant other, Sheena Degnan from Alamenda, Calif.; her favorite niece, Shelly Marie Redden of Cartersville, Ga.; and favorite nephew, George Wayne Trent of Holiday, Fla.; and many other nieces and nephews.
Frances loved to crochet, wear Chanel No. 5 and watch the old black and white movies. She loved nature and animals even though she wasn't able to get out and enjoy them.
The family wishes to express their deepest appreciation to Dr. Bell and the St. Luke's Hospice staff for their compassionate and comforting care, especially her faithful and supportive aide Suzanne and trusted nurse Julie.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be directed to Cedar Valley Humane Society or to your local animal shelter.
