Joel Benjamin Frank Joel Benjamin Frank, son of Irving and Hennie Frank, died Monday, Dec. 3, 2001. Arrangements by Peninsula Funeral Home. Published in the Daily Press on 12/6/2001. ================================================ In regards to Joel Frank--I also have wondered what happened to Joel--he was one of a kind for sure-the last time I saw him was at the sandwich shop he owned in downtown NN and around that time I moved to Texas (1992). My fondest memories of Joel were that whenever I went to a party--private or public, local or out of town, from high school and on-all I had to do was look around the room and I would find Joel standing there with a grin-and in the most unexpected circumstances and I loved it.

Typhoons: My Classmate, Gilmore Kirby ’64, passed away on 25 Nov 1998.
An old Army buddy of his recently learned of his death by searching the
Internet and landing on our NNHS web site. They had not been in contact
since 1968. I was contacted by the buddy and asked if I knew the cause of death. I replied that I did not, but I offered to query the Alumni in hopes that someone does know. If you have this information, please e-mail me at nnhs64@cox.net. - Dave Spriggs ('64) of VA - 12/30/07

go to Gridley High School of Gridley, IL and my U.S. History class is
posting remembrances for the many men that don’t have remembrances up on the
Virtual Wall. I think that every man that made the ultimate sacrifice for this country needs to be recognized for all that he did. So I thank William Edwin Koehler for serving his country in the best way that he knew how. Thank you, Brooke Porzelius little_kisses_4u@hotmail.com Wednesday, October 22, 2003 |
