Retired missionary Frances Vine passed away August 2. She was 93.

Vine was born March 28, 1922, in Canada. At the age of 14 she told her family she was called to be a missionary despite not being a Christian. Later, while serving in the Canadian Air Force, Vine accepted Christ.

During her 28 years on the field, she was a professor and administrator in addition to running the missionary home in Manila. Vine received a Master of Divinity and a Master of Religious Education from Nazarene Theological Seminary during her time in the Philippines.

Following her return from the mission field, Vine  was administrator of the Sun Valley Indian School in Arizona. 

She is survived by her foster daughter, Esther.

Frances will be interned at 11 a.m. August 14  at Rose Hills Memorial Park in Whittier, California.
