Franklinton

Hey Shoafie,

I'm going to guess that the Coakley you knew was/is Carson. He is the one who would be blondish. Both of the Caokley boys would have been kinda chubby, Frank has "passed on" but I believe Carson is still around.

If you are checking the auditors site, 305 Dakota is the house I renovated in the late 70's....still looks OK. I was a mere child at the age of 26 when I started the whole process and have many fond memories of raising my family in that house and being a part of Gladden Community House.

It is very nice to hear from you and I hope all is well in your household.

Hi Marc,  Your reply stirred a memory in me. I believe now that it was Frank Coakley. As soon as I saw the name, it came back. Sorry to hear he has passed on. He would be approximately my age, 68/69. Thanks for the news. Take care,  Shoafie

Marc, I also might add that I may have a picture of Frank around somewhere. As I  remember it, we went to a Holloween Party at a girl's house, a classmate at Starling, her name was Dianne West, and Frank was there, so he was in the picture. That would have been around '55 or '56.

Hi again Shoafie,

That would have been Frank.... I could check the SSDI and get the date of death if you like. I think he passed away within 2yrs. I was related to him by marriage (half-sister of Frank's). I am still on speaking terms with my ex but don't talk very often. Frank married a girl by the name of Sarah (don't know maiden name) and raised 2 girls, Tina and Terri. I have had no contact with former in-laws (now out-laws?? LOL) for many years. I might ask a few questions and get back with you.

Sorry it took so long to reply...I didn't notice your post.

Take care,       

Marc
