Clifford (Cliff) Irwin Franks died peacefully in his sleep on November 7, 2021, at 86 years of age. His purpose in life was to serve. His fascination in life was a quest for knowledge. His legacy is, and I quote, “You kids are your own best friends”. He taught us to work together, resolve conflict, love each other, believe in the impossible, dream beyond reason, question everything, and to respect authority. Survived by wife, Cheryl Franks, children; Cynthia Franks Bowser, Detta Franks Goodman (Caleb), Cassandra Franks LaFaye, Corinne Franks Oh, Candace Franks Paine, Cecilia Franks Tompkins, Carrie Franks Smith; 21 grandchildren,10 great grandchildren, brother Cary Franks (Joy), nephews; Chad Franks, Collin Franks and niece, Catherine Franks.
