I offer my condolences at the loss of your beloved father, Norman Francis. Your father and my father, Wilbern Eades, had a very close friendship for many years. Their friendship probably began in the 1940's as I remember visiting the Francis Store and picture show in Shady Grove with my family. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Wilda Eades Wolford

Grandpa, I'm going to miss you so much. You were the first one to tell me that I was going to have a boy, the day I found out I was pregnant. Christmas will never be the same without you. I'll actually miss when you used to come up to me and pat my head and said I got my curly hair from you.I love you Grandpa. It's a relief to know that you're not hurting anymore, and you're with the angels in heaven where you belong. I just wish you could have held my little boy. Love, Your favorite curly headed grandaughter, Jinger

Norma Jean and Family: It's been a while, I hope you remember me from Elm Chapter OES in Marked Tree. Sorry to read this about your father. Sounds like he was a very busy man. Now he can go rest high on that mountain as his labors here on earth are done. Just wanted to send my condolences and let you know you are thought of. May God be with you and your family as you go through this time of sorrow. Love, Glenda

I had the honor and pleasure of knowing Norman for about 3 or 4 years. I worked at cingular wireless, as the cell phone repairmen, and worked on Mr. Francis's phone more than once. I will truly miss his outgoing personality and his funny catch phrases. I am truly sorry for your loss. David Ellison
