Francis Eugene MADDOX

Maddox family Uncle Fran will be remembered for a long time by all his family and friends. You cannot not remember him for his attitude, kindness, and especially his humor. He was famous for his hugs and hearty back "pats". Uncle Fran's name comes up when we do those hugs at home. Here's to you Uncle Fran! Till we meet again.....

To all the Maddox families..I want to express my condolence on the passing of your Pa. You were so blessed to have had him for so many years. When we were together, I always felt there was so much love in your family. I always remember his "Back Home Again in Indiana". God's blessings to all.
Your cousin, Barbara

To Melly and all of the Maddox Families,
It was an honor to have "Pa" in our lives for many, many years. What a dedicated, hard working, fun-loving man! I will treasure the many visits we had while at the Masonic Home...whenever we would have our chat, he looked at me and said "AMEN"! Every time I would leave from my visit, I teared up and thought "he truly should be showing people of all ages the true beauty of living a positive, loving, honest life". He is my inspiration that I will...

It is always sad when you lose a parent. Your dad was a great guy, always full of fun & laughter. He will be missed but you have wonderful memories. Love, Mary Jean Kelly

It is always sad when you lose a parent, no matter what the age. Your dad was a wonderful man always full of fun. He will be missed but you all have great memories. Love, Mary Jean Kelly

On Grand Avenue, I remember the go cart he built. You could steer it, neat. Didn't they roller skate in the gym at Annunciation; my mother told me he was a very good roller skater. Remember his smile, and welcoming chat when we worked on the Milwaukee RR. Remember his girls, Francine, a sweetheart, who baby sat me, and Patty, who beat me up. Sorry, no sorrow from me. He lived life on the sunny side for ninety three years, I envy Francis Eugene.

I met Francis a couple of years ago. He always made me smile with his special blessings. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Mel, and the entire family .

Uncle Fran was part of my life whwn I was young. His 0lder sister was my Mom who he called (Al). Every year they would take the train to Indiana to see all of us, we waited on that train because we new a lot of fun and love was coming. Both his sisters,and my mom Al and my Aunt Lela his other sister. Unle Fran would sing and we join in. I wish I could write about all things we did with Uncle Fran but it would be a book. Love to all of you kids. He had a great life and I know you all will miss...

You are a lucky clan to have had such a wonderful example of love and devotion your Dad felt for his family. He lived a long and happy life and I'm glad he stayed for the his 93rd birthday party, what a great celebration.
