I have been out of town for a week and just got back. I was very sad to find out about your moms passing and that I missed seeing all of you. It was just 3 weeks ago that we were at the Levan Cemetary visiting moms grave on her birthday and I was showing my kids where Uncle Carl's grave was. I am glad that they are together again. Our love to all of you! JoLynn Francom Griner and family.

I am sorry to hear of Aunt Iola's passing. While driving past Levan just last week I was thinking about Uncle Carl and Aunt Iola. I remembered many deer hunting trips up Chicken and Pigeon Creek with the family as well as getting together at Grandma and Grandpa Francoms home. She is a good lady and will be thought of often.
