Frankie was born in Iredell County on August 14, 1927 to the late Graham Ross Shaver and Frances Elizabeth Parker Shaver. She was married to her husband of 64 years, Mike Farfour, who preceded her in death on August 30, 2017. Frankie supported her husband in many of his business, civic and charitable activities.
