Frances was bon in Annapolis, MD, on August 2, 1913, to Rear Admiral Robert A. Theobald and Helen Berry Theobald. As a young girl, Frances lived in China where her father was stationed with the Navy. She then went on to Bishops School in La Jolla, CA, and Vassar College, where she graduated with honors. During the 2nd World War, Frances worked in the Dept of Naval Intelligence where she used her ability to speak seven languages to assist with code breaking and other critical activities. It was there that she met James Lamb Brainerd, whom she married in 1945. In 1947, with her husband Jim (deceased), Frances came to California. For the next 50 years, she used her incredible energy and talent to serve her communities and her church. In that regard, she ran a Girl Scout troop, was extremely active in the Junior League, serving as president of the Bay Area chapter, and was one of the! three co-founders of the Children's Health Counsel of Palo Alto, CA. She served as the executive director of the Children's Health Counsel for 10 years and was instrumental in making it a nationally-recognized facility for the treatment of children with behavioral and developmental issues. Later in life, Frances and Jim moved to Borrego Springs, CA. In that lovely desert community, Frances worked with others to create and build a visitors center for the State Park. Also, she and Jim, with the assistance of many others, were the founders of St. Barnabas Episcopal Church. Frances served for many years as a senior warden and lay reader at St. Barnabas. St. Barnabas was her crowning achievement and it is the place where she will come to rest with her Jim, Frances is survived by her children, Helen Brainerd Windsor (John) and Alexander (Lex) Lamb Brainerd (Carlyn Clause), six grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. Her brother, Robert A. Theobold Jr. pre-deceased her. Frances! is also survived by her nephew, Robert A. Theobold III (Mary); and he r niece, Mary Theobald Majors (George).
