ALFRED STATION Frances A. Cornelius, 91, passed away Thursday (July 9, 2009) at Wellsville Manor Care Center.

Mrs. Cornelius was born on the Winding Brook Farm in Alfred on Aug. 26, 1917 to Lynn and Grace (Higby) Langworthy. She was a 1935 graduate of Alfred Station Union School. She then moved to Plainfield, NJ with her aunt and uncle to attend business school. On March 4, 1943, in Alfred Station, she married Wayland S. Cornelius, who predeceased her on Jan. 14, 1999.

Upon returning to Alfred Station, Frances worked at Steuben Trust Bank in Alfred for many years until her retirement in 1978.

In addition to her husband, she was predeceased by a daughter, Wanda L. Kemp and a brother-in-law, Kenneth Van Horn.

Besides being a loving wife, mother and grandmother, Frances was an avid crotchet crafter. She was also known for her wonderful smile that could light up a room.

The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, which art in Heaven: Hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, And the power and the glory, For ever and ever. Amen
