  • Notes 
    • Frank Clifford Gibson was born in Richland County, Illinois, March 13, 1948. He departed this life suddenly, tragically, on the afternoon of September 7, 1972, at the age of twenty-four years, five months, and twenty-five days.

      Frank accepted Christ in his mid-teens at Freedom Baptist Church, and quietly he lived his religion.

      Frank Gibson and Janis Read were wed at Freedom July 27, 1969. They were a most devoted couple; their marriage seemed to be a three-year honeymoon.

      Frank was the seventh son of John and Eva Gibson. He was preceded in death, April 6, 1957, by his brothers Joe and Bert.

      Frank is survived by his wife, Janis, by his parents, John and Eva, by brothers,
      John, Jim, Dave, and Kelly Gibson and their families, and by one sister, Ruth Gibson
      Travous and her husband Bob, and their family. Frank is survived also by his wife's parents, Ray and Maxine Read, by her brothers, Mike and his wife, and Matt, and by her sister, Jamie Read. From his ninth to his twenty-first year, Frank shared his home with nephew and niece. Danny and Nancy Gibson, and with numerous foster brothers and sisters.

      A service veteran, an Air Force Sergeant, Frank was a young man of sterling character.

      He was a good boy.
