Frances Kincaid Coker, 89, passed away Tuesday, November 10, 2026, in Houston, Texas. A graveside service will be held at 10:00 a.m. Monday, November 16, at Crowell Cemetery.

Fran was born March 9, 1937, in Crowell, Texas, to Joseph Merl and Eva Noyce (Todd) Kincaid. She was a graduate of The University of Texas in Austin where she was a member of the Gamma Phi Beta sorority and a Texas Star twirler for the Longhorn’s football team. She enjoyed a career as both a schoolteacher and realtor.

Fran loved to play tennis, loved to watch football, read the newspaper - especially the horoscopes, cook for family and friends, host OU weekend football parties, and decorate for every holiday. She loved the State Fair of Texas and never met a roller coaster she didn’t like. Fran loved to decorate, painting and putting up wallpaper in many houses. She was aces as a plant keeper.

“Franny”, as her grandkids called her, was a hostess of fun sleepovers, “Fridays at Franny’s” swimming and a professional Pop Tart provider. Her grandkids delighted in the fact that her sweet tooth was as big or BIGGER than theirs. One of their favorite things to do with Franny was visit the animals at Petco and “Chainsaw” the parrot at the neighborhood hardware store.

She is survived by her children, Kristin Ramsour and husband John of Houston; Baron Coker and wife Shannon of Houston; and Cole Coker and wife Jennifer of Houston; and her grandchildren, Mac Ramsour, Lily Ramsour, Katy Coker, Nicole Coker, and Evie Coker.

She was preceded in death by her sister, Marcia Johnson, and brother, Robert Kincaid.
