I was so sorry to hear of Franklin's passing. He was my mother and aunt's cousin and after their passings he would call me around Christmastime instead of sending a card, which was so much more enjoyable! We spent a good half hour talking this past Christmas so I was shocked to hear he had died, but I know how much he missed Maxine and I'm sure it is a comfort to his family to know that they are reunited again. God bless you all and remember all the good times you had together and the joy of knowing he is in Heaven with your mom.

P.S. Grace (Schroeder) Wolter was my mother and Ruth Nehrbass was my grandma, so that is the family connection.
