Franklin C. Stoll 1933-1990

The Angel of Death has crossed the threshold of another home and taken away the loving companion, Father, Brother, and friend, and left in our hearts a void which can never be filled.

Franklin C. Stoll was born November 17, 1933, in Afton, Missouri. Franklin departed this life August 12, 1990.

He leaves to mourn his passing, his wife, Nellie of the home; five children, Tommy Michael of Texas, Susie Burch of Springfield, Nicholis Michael of Richland, David Michael and John Michael of Springfield; six grandchildren, two great grandchildren, his mother, Lena Hayes of Lebanon; one brother, Norman Stoll of Richland, and many friends.

Franklin loved the Lord. He accepted Christ as his Savior in 1970, and has served the Lord since that time. He is a member of the Idumea Baptist Church; a church he loved very much.
