Fran and Rob with Art Carlson at Kelsey Road House 20th anniversary

Both Fran and Rob, worked at the Kesey's in the early years, were good friends and part of the reason The Kelsey Road House was a success!!!! If anyone see's Rob please remind him that that my Ford Mustang beat his Mustang on River Road and I still have the $20.00 he lost that night!!!!

I was just snooping thru Facebook and saw Fran's post from January 2014. I suspected things didn't turn out well from surgery. I hadn't seen Fran in several years as I really knew him thru his ex-wife Debbie. Rest in peace, Fran. I know your family misses you deeply. Gwen

My wife Judy and I are so sorry to hear of the passing of Fran. Fran and his brother Rob worked for us at The Kelsey Road House in Barrington IL. while they were attended Barrington H.S.

We would like to pass our condolences on to Rob and and all of the Donohue family and let them know how fortunate we were to have shared some happy moments with Fran and Rob. Just for the record Fran was one of the best pizza makers Kelsey ever had. Rob was...

To all of Fran's Family.
I only recently learned of Fran's passing and am deeply saddened on the one hand but uplifted at the knowledge of his relationship with God.

What an experience knowing an individual who could not shut up talking about his children especially Robert with his football prowess. My prayer for all of his family is that you live confident in the fact that your...

Miss ya Buddy. I will forever cherish our 25+ year friendship. The world just got a lot dimmer and heaven a lot brighter. You've left us way too soon, but the legacy you leave behind is tremendous. Rob and Jim are the the types of individuals that every parent hopes their children will grow up to be. Because of your guidance and love they will proudly represent your legacy for many years to come. But that's not where it ends, you've touched every person that you've ever met. I know that I am...

Dear Robbie and Jimmy,
Your dad was a great coach to me when I was younger and he made playing baseball more than fun. He was truly special in helping coach so many kids throught out the years. Everybody liked playing for you dad.
Fran was also my confirmation sponsor at St.Collete catholic church. I am grateful for him sharing his faith with me and helping me stay steadfast as a young person. May God bless you and you family always.

Regards,

Ryan Hall
