He left home and went north to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he met and married Hazel Combs. They remained by each others sides taking what life dealt them until her passing in January of 2018. Together they had three children, Franklin (Butch), Lynda and Scott; two grandchildren, Christopher and Francis; one great granddaughter, Heaven and one great-great granddaughter, Julie.
Frank spent his life working and helping others. He was a welder, a mechanic and a truck owner. He founded ATL Truck Lines in Clearwater, Florida and operated it successfully until his retirement. He was always ready to teach and help anyone willing to learn and work.
Frank touched the lives of many people and asked little in return. His legacy lives on through all the people he helped, guided and worked with. Frank loved trucks and while it was his work it also served as his recreation.
God has welcomed him home, he has finished the race and we will miss him.
