Frances Elizabeth "Sis" Holcomb Cline Obituary

Frances Elizabeth "Sis" Holcomb Cline, 94, of Hanover, WV, passed away at her home February 18, 2022, after a short illness.

"Sis" was born in Trace, WV, (Kanawha County) January 13, 1928, to parents Jack & Goldie Withrow Holcomb. After travelling with her family throughout southern West Virginia, following sawmill work, the Holcomb family settled in Hanover where "Sis" attended Rose Branch Elementary School and then to Baileysville High School, where she graduated in 1945. After working a variety of jobs, "Sis" married Harold Cline, September 29, 1949. The couple settled in Hanover where she enjoyed her life as a wife, homemaker and becoming a mother to Jerry and Sherry. Throughout her life as a wife and homemaker, "Sis" enjoyed keeping a clean house, decorating, cooking and singing her favorite Gospel songs. "Sis" could sometimes be found exercising and stretching and on occasion even dancing to her favorite singers, Dean Martin & Kenny Rogers. Also, she really enjoyed her favorite foods, beans, cornbread and slaw. Her greatest pleasure came during the Holiday Season at Bartley and at Tennessee when she got to spend time with her parents, Jack & Goldie, aka Dad and "Muntul," and her siblings and their families. "Sis" especially enjoyed the later years of her life with her grandchildren and seeing them grow into adults and being around family where she spent her last 14 years living with Sherry and her family in Clear Fork.

"Sis" was preceded in death by husband Harold Cline, her parents, Jack and Goldie Holcomb, brothers Bill (Viola) Holcomb, Don Holcomb, Ronnie (Annette) Holcomb, sisters Dorothy "Dot" Lester, Betty (Lewis "Connie") Moore. She is survived by brother Walter (Carol) Holcomb, brother-in-law, Ray Lester (Alice), daughter Sherry (Barry) Davis, son Jerry (Sharon) Cline, granddaughters and companions, Anna Davis (Jeff Wischer), Mckinsey Davis (Taylor Smith), Kelley Cline (Adam Lewczenko) and special great grandsons Ryker and Jedrik Lewczenko, and members of her Cline Family, Nora Cline and Elma Minton.

The Family would also like to thank her home health caregiver, Nancy McComas, for her years of caregiving and Hospice of Southern West Virginia for providing care in her final days.
