Anyone who met Francis would not soon forget him. He definitely had the gift to gab. He herded sheep for many years, where he met some of his best friends. His family would like to express their appreciation to the Bryan Allred and Todd Jorgensen Families for being so good to Francis and a special thanks to Jackie, his very dear friend!

He is preceded in death by his parents, brothers Lynn, Douglas, Terry and Andrew; brother-in-law David Simmons. Survived by his siblings Shirley Norton, Gayleen (Tom) Gonzales, Susan (Frosty) Hittle, Raymond (Natilee) Jensen, Alice Simmons, Colleen (Troy) Mackey, many nephews and nieces, which I think Kellie was his favorite cause she mothered him so well.

If You Know You Know.

Gotcha Good On That One.
