Obituary: J. Thomas Francis, 89, passed away peacefully at home in his sleep from recently diagnosed cancer on 1, 2014 in Naples, Florida. He was born on 29, 1924 in Canton, Ohio to James C. Francis and Maxine Firestone Francis. Tom, a long time resident of Madison, Ohio, lived almost his entire life in northeastern Ohio and he had his winter home in Naples, Florida. Tom will be warmly remembered as a great father, a loving husband, and a successful professional architect. He was a talented golfer who won many club championships, a strong overall athlete, and a proud veteran as a domestic pilot in the U. S. Army Air Corps. He was a steadfast friend to all and truly enjoyed his life. His philosophy was make it look easy, which he did throughout his life and even in his death. Tom was very fortunate to have two long marriages and was widowed twice. His first marriage from 1945 until 1987 was to his high school sweetheart, Beverly Jane Aho, who predeceased him in 1987. Several years after the death of Beverly, Tom then married Fay Green Atkin of Madison in 1989 and they had a 22 year marriage until Fay died in 2011. Tom graduated from Ashtabula Harbor High School in 1942. one year at Ohio State University, where he was a member of the freshman basketball team, Tom left to join the U. S. Army Air Corps. For the duration of World War II, he served as a domestic pilot and achieved the rank of Second Lieutenant. World War II finished in 1945, Tom received his honorable discharge from the U. S. Army Air Corps. He then returned to college and attended the University of Cincinnati where he received a bachelor of science in architecture in 1950. Tom earned 7 varsity letters in college (3 in golf as number one man and team captain and 4 in track and field, where he was a pole vaulter.) Interestingly both are intercollegiate sports that have their competitive seasons in the spring. He began his professional career in 1950 with the architectural firm of Green, Smith and Associates, in Painesville, Ohio which later became Green, Smith, Francis Associates. 20 years with the firm, he then formed his own firm to pursue golf course architecture in addition to his existing architectural business. A number of the buildings he designed during his career received local awards and one golf course was used as a site for an LPGA tournament for many years. Tom had a low key demeanor and he had a very creative mind. In addition to his architectural career, he applied for and received several United States patents, including a patent for the Ready-Seat golf cart, which was a commercial success sold at golf courses mainly in Ohio. He was also always interested in new ideas, such as solar power and solar heating, water desalination plants and other related developments. Tom was an active member of Madison Golf and Country Club for 60 years, where he won many golf club championships, and senior club championships. He successfully maintained his golf game throughout the years as he shot his age in golf every year from age 70 to age 85. He truly enjoyed spending many days at the club with all of his close friends. Tom was predeceased by both his parents, his brother Jerry, of Phoenix, Arizona and by both his spouses. He is survived by all of his extended family. Tom was quite close to and very proud of J. Stuart Francis and Thomas John Francis, his two sons from his marriage to Beverly. Additionally, his survivors include 4 grandchildren- Andrea Francis, Emily Francis, Mick Francis and Lucy Francis , 3 stepchildren- Linda Morley, Roger Atkin and Richard Atkin, 3 step grandchildren-Kacy Morley, Abby Morley DeMarco and Daniel Atkin and his one step great grandchild Bella Fay Walters. A memorial service to honor his life will be at 11AM 14, at THE BEHM FAMILY FUNERAL HOME, 26 River St, Madison, Ohio. His final resting place will be at Dock Road in Madison. In lieu of flowers, feel free to remember him by making a donation to your local First Tee organization or to the USGA, each for the support of childrens involvement in the great game of golf. |

Obituary: My Dearest Edith, We travelled across the skies to all corners of the nation and into other countries and on to other continents. We sailed the high seas to interesting ports of call. We drank of life by being involved socially and professionally. We made new friends while still keeping the ones we had known before. We did crazy things but enjoyed doing them. We shared triumphs, sorrows, joys and disappointments, but above all we shared with each other a deep and abiding LOVE. You are truly a great person and it is my blessing to have you as my LOVING partner. Please take good care of yourself now and always. Most of all, thanks for loving me. Always, Gil Dr. Gilbert (Gil) Harrington Francis The President of St. John's University in describing Gilbert stated: "It was the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. who with eloquence and vision, articulated a dream of justice and equity. It has been men like Gilbert Francis who have dedicated their lives to the realization of that dream." Born in Brooklyn, New York, to the late Arthur B. Francis and Winifred L. Hylton, Gilbert was blessed with five sisters, Roslyn (deceased), Claudette, Margaret (deceased), Elise and Elsa. Gil was educated in New York City at PS 93, Boys High and St. John's University where he earned a BBA . This was followed by graduate studies at City and Hunter s of the City University and St. John's University before receiving a Doctor of Philosophy and then the Doctor of Laws Degrees. At both Boys High and City , he earned varsity letters in track and field. As a member of the school's national championship team, Gil was inducted into the Boys High Athletic Hall of Fame. Gil served in the United States Army as a military intelligence specialist in both Japan and Korea. Embracing the sentiment that "Freedom is not free, he served with distinction and was awarded the Army Service Medal for outstanding service. Realizing that there is nothing more difficult to take in hand, nor more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to lead the introduction of a new order of things, he was firmly committed to taking a leadership role in meeting the challenge and making a change in his various endeavors. Throughout his more than 55 years in the workforce, he was engaged in a wide variety of occupations. There were certainly some very tough times but the ultimate victories he achieved were more than sweet enough to compensate him adequately and then some. Through service with agencies of the Federal and State of New Jersey governments on a few occasions, he achieved national recognition and acclaim. The most notable came when, as the head of Civil Rights for New Jersey, he ordered National Little Leagues to accept females. This decision was a key factor in forcing the federal government to implement Title IX, the Sex Discrimination Law, which had been passed but not implemented. This landmark decision positively affected women in all walks of life. Gil's personal contributions were cited in James Michner's book, Sports in America. Getting involved in his community to help improve the human condition was important to Gil. The recipient of more than a hundred awards and citations, he was honored to have been nominated for the NAACP's coveted Spingarn Medal, receiving Phi Beta Sigma's Distinguished Service Key, being inducted into the National Pan-Hellenic Council's Wall of Fame, and awarded the Lions International Melvin Jones Fellow. Gil served in numerous leadership roles to include: being elected the 25th National President of the 2.5 million member National Pan-Hellenic Council, Inc; over fourteen years on the national board of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. to include being Editor of the fraternity magazine, The Crescent, held offices with Florida's District 35D of Lions International. Gil also met four Presidents of the United States plus several other national and international leaders. Gil always maintained a prominent, personal touch in his interactions with others, highlighted by his close family relationship with his wife, Edith; son, Dwayne; daughters Deborah and Denise; his sisters, four grandchildren: Dwayne II, Christine, Scott, and Sam; two great granddaughters: Isabella and Kristina, as well as a host of other loving family members. Gil's professional life saw him in the roles of educator, analyst, investigator, civil/human/ rights activist, author, lecturer, and businessman. He also enjoyed traveling to more than 95 countries and 45 states; oil painting; singing; cooking for groups up to 250 guests; reading novels; and social dancing. His autobiography was initially written in 2000. The family has asked that in lieu of flowers, donations be made in Dr. Gilbert Francis name to: PHI BETA SIGMA NATIONAL FOUNDATION, INC., with a Memo line: Dr. Gilbert H. Francis Scholarship Fund, 145 Kennedy Street NW, Washington, DC 2001. (Phone: (202) 726-5434). Gils theme and the focus of his endeavors were to fully enjoy life by the sentiments of "MY WAY." The family has asked that in lieu of flowers donations be made in Dr. Gilbert Francis name to: PHI BETA SIGMA NATIONAL FOUNDATION, INC., with a Memo line: Dr. Gilbert H. Francis Scholarship Fund. 145 Kennedy Street NW Washington, DC 2001 (202) 726-5434 REMEMBERING GIL Hon. Bro. Dr. Gilbert H. Francis DSC #74 By Peter M. Adams, Esq. 30th International President President, The Distinguished Service Chapter PHI BETA SIGMA FRATERNITY, INC. Delivered at Omega Service, Melbourne FL, 31, 2016 "Oh Sigma Dear, thou hast for years led brave men strong and free, To thee we raise our hearts in song, we pledge our loyalty To serve thee e'er in joy or pain, in sorrow or in strife, We'll still proclaim in loud refrain: Phi Beta is the life!" I remember Brother Gil Francis as a very organized, friendly, upstanding individual, continued... |
