Franz, Melissa, and Malerie,
You are in my prayers. I just heard the news at work. I had no idea and would have definitely been at the service had I known, as would my family. None of us had any idea. My mom called in tears. Franzel was like a little brother growing up. I will miss him. I love you all and offer my sincerest condolences. God bless.

I wish I could have been there for you. Growing up you all have always been there for me.
When I look back I remember franzie and all the little tricks he played on me and I smile. He was like a little brother and I will always have fond memories of him. He was always so happy and loved to play around. I shall miss him so very much.
God Bless you all in this time of mourning.

"Little Franz" as we used to call him, was not little at all. He was truly big in heart and in his service to God. We can only smile when we think of him standing there leading the church in song. For he is surely taking 'Just A Closer Walk With Thee'.

For my family...
PRECIOUS GIFT
I've a wonderful gift that was given to me
By someone I love ever so
'tis a precious thing all my own
That only my heart would know
Like the sound of his voice and the touch of his hand
And the devilish glint in his eye
'tis the memories he has bestowed within me
That help me now to get by
His laughter I hear again in my mind
And the playful tone in his voice
He'd have wanted to stay and comfort me
But alas, he had no choice
For his Father was calling' and he heard Him first
But I know He'll be back for me
He'll quench this longing I have in my heart
And reunite us again....you will see
And although I miss him I'm not ready to go
For I've things yet to do of my own
So his precious gift shall remain in my heart
'til we're together again in Our Father's Home
cm~g
With much love....AC

Dear Melissa and Franz,
I work with Robbie and was so sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I know the pain you are going through right now because I also lost a son when he was just beginning his life as a young man like Franz. If I can help you during this time please don't hesitate to reach out. He was a precious gift for these 20 years.

On behalf of the Lake County School Board, I want to express our deep sadness to Larry, his brother and their families as they endure this tragedy. We are thinking of you and praying for you constantly. I am comforted that Franz knew Jesus and as difficult as this is, may the comfort of God's promise of eternal life give you strength and ultimately provide you with peace.
