Born to Saint James Aaron and Emma McCullough on December 7, 1923, Frankie was a native and lifelong resident of Lyons. Growing up as a teenager during the height of the great depression instilled a strong sense of family values within her heart. She was a homemaker who loved her children and spoiled her grandchildren. Frankie was an award-winning quilt maker; was an avid gardener, and she loved to dance, fish and travel. Her favorite activity was spending time with her family. She was a member of Vidalia Women’s Club and a long-time member at First Baptist Church of Vidalia where she was a member of the Steadfast Sunday School Class.
