Francis Earl Balcom

This picture is from June 1990 when we celebrated Mom and Dad's 40th Wedding Anniversary. We had the party at a restaurant in Liverpool, and Sherri copied their original Wedding Cake, and was also able to restore the original cake topper.

This photo was taken at Alan & Bob’s house on December 30, 2004. Seated at the table are Mom, Dad, Paul and Sherri. This would have been the first holiday season after Sherri & Paul’s wedding on April 24th. And, YES that is a full size Christmas...

This Photo was taken in 2006 at Sherri & Paul's home. Paul is in the very front, then Linda, Sherri and Mon, Back row, Alan, Dad and Gordon. This was when we celebrated Mom's 75th Birthday.

Francis was a wonderful neighbor and will be greatly missed. Our family benefited greatly over the years from the fruits of his gardens. We enjoyed our conversations with him over the many years. Alan, thank you for personally coming to tell us of your Dad's passing. It meant a lot to us. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Ginny, if you need anything we are just up the road. God Bless You.

You've always been like a second family for me and my heart aches for each of you. I know the pain and loss you are feeling, but I also know you will be lifted from that and, in his memory, will go on knowing he will always be a part of you. I may be farther away physically, but will be here for any of the Balcoms at a moment's notice. Much love from me and Jim.

Alan,

It looks like your Dad had a long and enjoyable life and touched many people throughout his journey. While it must have been difficult, I'm happy that he was with his family during his final days. My thoughts are with you and your family during this time, and I wish you the best.

Sincerely,

Mike Cantiello

HI Alan,

I am so sorry for your loss. My father passed a few years ago, so I know what you’re going through. Please know that I am thinking about you and my prayers for comfort and peace from our Everlasting Lord Jesus go out to you and your family.

Dearest Alan

I was very sorry to hear that your father passed away. Please know that all of our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. No one is really prepared for all the emotions that come when a parent passes away. Please know that you have many good friends who will be available anytime you need a hug or just a loving heart to listen to you when you need to talk.

Take care
Sue
