We always used Gough Lamb Dry Cleaning and had several conversations with Mr. Francis. He was a kind and intelligent man. We were sad to hear about his sudden illness and now his death.

I worked at Gough Lamb Cleaners during high school and summers during college, 1966-1971 and have good memories of Mr. Francis, as I called him. He was the best boss, kind and considerate, and trusted me to work at the outlets by myself. It was a great job.

I worked at Gough Lamb for 5-6 years while in high school and summers during college, 1966-1971. I thought he was the best boss, kind and considerate, and he trusted me to work at the outlets by myself. I have lots of good memories of my time there.
