She often spoke of her childhood there as being a golden Eden filled with the sweet scent of orange blossoms. She was a woman of beauty, grace and intelligence.

Francine received a BA with Honors in English from Long Beach State in 1973. As an undergraduate she spent a semester in Dublin, Ireland at the School of Irish Studies, where she met the man she would marry and whom she captivated with her loveliness and elegance from the first moment he saw her. Francine returned to Ireland and received an MA in Anglo-Irish Literature from University College Dublin in 1974. She also received the attentions and affections of that captivated young man who pursued her and, far less ardently, that same degree. She gave her heart and her soul to that young man and their romance and love will never die.

Francine had four wonderful, beautiful children whom she loved and protected with all her passion and strength. She created two warm, delightful homes -one in Elmhurst, Illinois and another in her beloved Ireland. She loved opera, architecture, flowers, chocolate peanuts and, most of all, her family, who will miss her smile, her comfort and her love all the days of their lives.

Francine was the wife, lover and dearest friend of her still captivated husband, Michael J. Hartigan, Jr; mother, protector and teacher to her beloved children, Mary Anne (Andy) Grewal, Michael, Lawrence, and Alexander; devoted daughter of Mary Anne (Richard) Powers and the late Francis R. Sholly; loving sister to Kathy (Richard) Freeman, Janie (Timothy) Tierheimer, and Laura (Robert) Whitmore; devoted daughter-in-law of Michael J. (Ruth) Hartigan, Sr. and the late Therese F. Hartigan; and caring aunt to numerous nephews and nieces.

LOVEJOY
Walter R. Lovejoy, Chicago Industrialist, and longtime resident of Elmhurst and Oak Brook IL and Lost Tree Village, FL, died on Dec. 28, 2011 in Florida. He was 83. Mr. Lovejoy was born on May 16, 1928 in Chicago, IL to Walter and Anna Lovejoy. Mr. Lovejoy's impressive business career had modest beginnings. When he completed studies at Lane Tech, he attended IIT as a draftsman in the 1940's. In 1948, he took his first job at A-1 Tool in Melrose Park and, four years later, became President of A-1. The company was sold to Beatrice in the late 60's, and he went with the deal. Walter spent fourteen years in Management and as head of Beatrice's Industrial Division, with 30 companies reporting to him and sales of over $500 million. Walter left Beatrice in 1982, taking along A-1 Tool, Artistic Texturing and Acme Die Casting, which were the beginning of Lovejoy Industries, Inc. in Oak Brook, IL. The companies to join his portfolio included Acme Die Casting, Northbrook, IL, now with China and Brazil subsidiaries, and Lovejoy Management Group's Brillion Iron Works, Inc., Brillion, WI, Elkton Die Casting, Elkton, KY, Empire Galvanizing, LLC, Franklin Park, IL, Fabco Automotive Corp., Oakland, CA, Gunite Corp., Rockford, IL, and Minnesota Valley Engineering, Inc., New Prague, MN were all under his leadership. Mr. Lovejoy remained Chairman of Lovejoy Industries, Inc. until his death, leaving a legacy of fair and honest dealing. Throughout his life, Walter was a sportsman and athlete. Fishing and golf were his passions. This is where he made friendships that lasted a lifetime. In later years, he became a serious "hobbyist", making jewelry in his studio, which was a throwback to his early days in the tool and die business. Walter was a past member of Butler National Golf Club, Glen Oak Country Club and Butterfield Country Club. Walter is survived by his wife of 25 years, Susan Pike Lovejoy; sons Mark R. Lovejoy of Hobe Sound, FL, Matthew A. (Mary) Lovejoy of Lake Zurich, IL, Scott C. (Harriet) Lovejoy of Charlotte, NC, and grandchildren Bennett (Sarah) Lovejoy of Kansas City, MO, Megan (Danny) Deja of Chicago, IL, Elizabeth and Emily Lovejoy of Lexington, KY and Ruth, Walter and Anna Lovejoy of Charlotte, NC. Walter was predeceased by his first wife, Ruth Monte France and his grandson Alexander Lovejoy. Visitation for Walter will be held from 3 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 11 at Gibbons Funeral Home , 134 S. York Rd., (1/2 mile North of Saint Charles Rd.), Elmhurst, IL. Burial on Thursday, Jan. 12 will be private. A Memorial Service will be held in the spring.
