Francine was born June 12, 1949, in Jacksonville, Texas to Jeffie and Alpha Clemmons. Francine joined church at an early age. Francine graduated from Fred Douglas High School and attended Lon Morris, a private college located in Jacksonville.

Francine moved to San Angelo, Texas in 1974 where she met the love of her life, Kelly Baucham.  Kelly and Francine were married on December 24, 1976, and joined St. Paul Baptist Church on July 31, 1988, under the leadership of Rev. Hoover Lemons. On November 26, 1990, this union was blessed with a beautiful daughter, Kelli Siobhan was born. Now Francine had two Kellys to love and love them she did. Francine loved to talk about her family and if you knew her, you've heard the story of Kelli's premature birth and how God worked a miracle. Few people knew that Francine loved taking pictures of travels and family outings.  She loved being behind the camera rather than in front of it.  She loved baking and she could make some mean deviled eggs and her corn bread wasn’t too bad either.

Francine was employed by General Telephone Company for 30 years where she worked in various departments. After retirement she worked as church secretary for several years under the leadership of Pastor Fredd B. Adams before taking a job at SITEL Inc. Francine worked at SITEL and part time as Rev. Green's secretary until her health declined.

Sister Francine worked in the youth department, sung in the choir, worked on the finance committee, missionary society, deaconess board and the kitchen committee. Francine was an asset when it came to anything that had to do with making church bulletins and other computer related skills, which was demonstrated many times as a member of the Cosmopolitan Social Club.

At 5:30 PM on August 2, 2021, the Lord called his good and faithful servant home. Left to cherish her memory are her husband of 44 years, Kelly Baucham; daughter, Kelli Siobhan; brother, Willie Glen Clemmons; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, relatives, special friends and loved ones. She was preceded in death by her parents, Jeffie and Alpha Clemmons.
