Survived by his beloved father Oscar and his stepfather Don Francis. Gone to be reunited with his mother Pat Francis, his stepmother Terry, and his father-in-law Donald MacGrandles. Dear brother of Ken (Carol), Brian (Jan), Jayne Kozak (James MacGrandles), and Cheri Muldoon. Stepbrother of Susan, Steven, Ruth Ann(RIck), Donna, Brent(Jan), and Sid.
