Baldwin -- Frances C. Baldwin, age 97, of Lawrenceville, GA, passed away peacefully in her sleep the morning of Saturday, December 4, 2021. The funeral service will be held 1:00 PM Saturday, December 11, 2021, in the Lawrenceville Chapel of Tim Stewart Funeral Home, burial to follow at Westview Cemetery, Atlanta, GA. The family will receive friends before the service from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM, at the funeral home. Frances Baldwin never met a person she didn't like: she made friends everywhere! She has sometimes been described as "a pistol" or "a hoot!" She unexpectedly became a widow with a 2 year old son and an aged mother-in-law to care for, and did an amazing job back in a day and age when there was little help for single parents. This made her a strong woman, yet she retained a real zest for living. Mrs. Baldwin was an outstanding quilter, and won awards for some of her quilts. She also enjoyed sewing and crafts, and a few decades ago shared an interest in photography with her son. She wasn't afraid of new technology and learned to use a computer in her 80's, and enjoyed texting on her smartphone. At the time of her passing, she was a member of Briarcliff Baptist Church. Frances Baldwin was preceded in death by her husband, V. T. (Bill) Baldwin, Jr., parents John Henry and Fannie Mae (Bennett) Clark, and by her granddaughter Megan Baldwin. She is survived by her son and her daughter-in-law, John & Nancy Baldwin of Lawrenceville, grandson David Baldwin of Buford, and numerous friends.
