Aden H. Francis

DEEPIEST CONDOLANCE DON NEVILLE AND FAMILYm

Prayers and condolences to the family. We are members of the GLUMC where we had the pleasure and benefit of knowing both Aden and Merna. We have fond memories of Aden in the Fall bringing in pumpkins and gourds to share with his church family.
We have two children that also really enjoyed his sharing at children's time his live goose, while we hoped nothing too exciting would happen.
We were all proud and thankful as he stood on Veterans Day for his service to our country.
Blessings to you all,
The Williams family

Tammy and Eric- Sending my condolences to you and your families. I think you both know how good Aden was to me throughout my career in ag- beyond his retirement years. He was first a mentor and coach and later just a dear friend. I still treasure a day lily that he gave me years ago.

Your family has had a tough year with the loss of both or your parents (along with all the rest of the challenges that 2020 has delivered). My thoughts are with you.

Anyone who knew Aden would say he was unique. He wary gifted and full of knowledge. I would call him for help in a garden or with some Lillie she had given me to grow. He was always very helpful and you couldn't be so thin skinned that his style affected you. That was just who he was. If we had nothing to talk about you could just mention Penn State Football or Joe Paterno and he would talk talk talk, unless the Hawkeyes had just beat them and then the talk was over. God Blessed me to call him uncle and friend..

in memory of my cousin Aden. my favorite memory is a trip we took to Baja Mexico for a day of Lobster and shopping......Aden and Merna decided to buy their grandkids a pinata......which they bartered for while we were in my automobile lined up to re enter the united states....and they ended up carrying on board their flight back to Michigan. RIP cousin.

John and I have many fun, fond memories of Aden...and Merna. They were an example of what a Christian couple is meant to be...loving, kind, caring, and generous! Hold fast to your memories and belief that they are together in God's kingdom. Blessings as you mourn.

Tammy, Eric and your families:
Sorry to learn of your Dad’s passing. We both worked in the agricultural crop protection business as competitors, but had a great friendship and respect for one another. Both he and Merna were generous people, but in different ways.
Aden had a big heart, but you needed to know him in order to see it. I will always consider him a good friend and remember him with a smile on my face.
Sincerely, Russ Tiller Jr

Rest in peace, Ade. You will be missed.
