Joseph James Franks

Joe was not only a great person but a talented salesman. He always wanted to go the extra mile and rarely said no. His customers loved him and they knew they could count on him. I enjoyed playing golf with Joe, even though he was on the wrong side of the ball. He will be missed by all who came into contact with him!
