Frances Cooper Korman, 91, Boise
Frances Jeanette Cooper Korman (Frankie), Boise, died Tuesday, June 21, 2011 at Life Care Center of Treasure Valley in Boise. She was 91.
She was born June 25, 1920 to Edna and Arthur F. Cooper. She was the third of 12 children.
Frankie and her siblings were raised on the homestead at Upper Fords Creek above Orofino. She had many memories growing up on the farm. Her earliest memory was her father shooting a bear from the porch of the cabin. She related the story of rushing into a burning barn to rescue two sobbing children.
She grew into a beautiful young lady and caught the eye of Mont Kerr. She was 17 when they married. Three children were born from that marriage, Ione, Sam and Denton. The family lived on the Clear Creek in Kooskia. Frankie chopped wood, cooked over a wood stove, drew water from the creek, drove the children to school driving over thin boards that kept them from falling into a huge whirlpool below, and did all she could to take care of her family.
The family pulled up stakes and moved to Boise in 1950. Frankie took her family on many trips between Boise and Orofino to visit.
Frankie and Mont were later divorced.
For many years Frankie worked downtown at the Skaggs Drug Store, later called Payless and Rite Aid. She worked in the cosmetic department providing friendly service to most everyone that lived in Boise at that time.
She met and married Hank Korman. Kandy was born from that marriage.
Frankie was a gracious hostess as they entertained family and friends at their home. They also enjoyed the horse races at Le Bois Park.
After Hank passed away, she was a resident at Hillcrest Retirement and Ashley Manor. She was cheerful and enjoyed the company of the other residents. She was always a lady and stood out as a striking woman.
She is survived by two sisters, Mabel Grogan, Priest River and Effie McAllister, Orofino; two brothers, Ollie Cooper, Orofino and Lloyd Cooper, McCall; two sons, Sam (Nita), Boise and Denton (Wendy), Panguitch, UT; daughter, Kandy (Tom) Compton, Boise; 11 grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, and eight great-great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by husband Hank, daughter Ione; seven brothers and sisters; and two grandchildren.
Funeral services were held June 24 at Summers Funeral Homes in Boise. Burial followed at Morris Hill Cemetery.
The family would like to thank Life Care Center of Treasure Valley for their kind loving care during her final days.
