  • it's really really great to "see" you after all these years. i love you a lot
  • How delightful to see you hear. I often think of you and Linda which much fondness. Do you have grandchildren now, and if so, are all your cabinets labeled? Love to you both.
  • Hey Franklin...
    Good to see you, you have been busy with the kids & family matters, good for you. I have to admit that 3 kids was plenty for me, but they seem to have turned out ok (though sometimes I think it is in spite of my efforts, rather than because of....)
    I was in SC in 2006 - managed my son's lacrosse team's american tour. We started in Falston MD, then Andrew & I rented a car and drove to my cousin's in FL, stopping to visit friends & relatives along the way. We were in Wake Forest with a high school friend for two days. It was wonderful to be able to touch base with so many friends at once. Hopefully there will be more tours or at least more oppourtunities to visit!
    Love to you & Linda,
    Nancy
  • Hi, remember me? I took care of Ralph one summer - we all stayed together in Bo and Stanley's house.
    Great times and days. You are both looking great.

  • Franklin,
    You look distinguished - but that is nothing new!!
    Always thankful for your life and all you did for me and so many of God's people.
    Give my love to Linda.
    God bless,
    Rob
  • God bless you brother.

    Will always remember your help at our wedding and lots of other great moments of life in the 5th Corps.

    Love to Linda and a howdy to Foster and Teesh, too.

    You are God's best,

  • Hey Franklin,
    Yeah! We have 5 kids, all home-schooled. I heard about homeschooling from a 7th Day Adventist couple in the backyard of a friend in Calgary, Alberta back in 1985 or so. I am SO thankful we followed through on it.
    Hey, check out http://www.chapelvalley.org/Home/podcast.htm
    Teachings by a small, unassuming church pastor on the mystery of Christ. I think he might be the (at least "A") successor to Paul. He is definitely an apostle. His teachings seems to IMPART the spirit of Christ.
    Have fun with them
    Let me know if/how they bless you.
    Your brother in Christ,
    Steve Hartlaub
  • Franklin,
    Merry Christmas to you and yours. We also homeschooled. I'm blessed to hear that you were able to continue for 18 years. We were able to do it for 9 years. It was the most educational and exciting and challenging thing I ever did -- absolutely, another adventure of a lifetime. Now that they are married and in college, we definitely see the results of the educational processes and the respect they have for learning.
    Give my love to Linda.
  • Merry Christmas, Franklin. Fond memories of you, Foster, Stanley & your dear parents in Charleston & Isle of Palms.
    Glad to see you on the site -- add some photos of your family. Bet you are a wonderful grandfather.
