From co-founding one of the county’s most noted nurseries, to working on the atomic bomb, Sarah Frances Panter Hobbs was among Warren County’s leading women of achievement. She died Sunday at the age of 88.“Frances was like a mother to me,” said Margaret Hobbs, her daughter-in-law of 44 years. “She was a wonderful inspiration to me and to everyone else around her.”
