My condolences to you Georgianna and to your family as well. I always enjoyed talks that Francis and I had back in our high school days. He was a very knowledgeable person and a good friend.

Fran was a good friend in SKCS, and later on not just a friend but as a resource who was very knowledgeable and helpful in anything mechanical. A community spirited, great guy who is missed by all who knew him.

So sorry for your loss. Fran and I had many a good times working on the many cars we restored together. I would stop in and visit with him when I got to NY. It was so good to see him and talk about the old days. I will miss him as I know y’all will too. May God Bless

Georgianna, I am sorry for your loss. When Francis and I were in high school, we played on the JV basketball team. Our practices were at the Hobart gym, and I vividly remember riding to practice with him in his Model A. One time we were passing someone and ran Dr. Brown, who was riding his bicycle, into the ditch. Be at peace.

Georgianna and family, my condolences to you. What great memories of Fran. Our Dad and family were certainly blessed to have had Fran as a friend, God bless and RIP Fran!

Georgianna and family,

I just learned of Fran's passing today. I so enjoyed talking to him all these years whenever I visited my mother, Genevieve. He answered so many of my questions about cars. He was always right. I would joke with him and we had a few laughs. I was sorry to see him decline these past weeks. I will miss him immensely. I will keep him, you and your family in my prayers. "What year car is this, Fran?" I would ask showing him a picture. He was never wrong. Rest in peace my friend.
