Francis was born on November 1, 1924 in Danville, Illinois, the son of William and Anna Pelman.
Following the death of both his parents, Francis was grateful for the opportunity to call Mooseheart his home until his graduation from high school in 1942. He served in the United States Marine Corps and was honorably discharged in 1946. Shortly thereafter, he met and married his lovely wife, Rosalind, whom he faithfully loved and cherished for over 64 years. In 1949, Francis received his accounting degree from the University of Illinois. He enjoyed his career as a CPA – especially serving his clients until he retired earlier this year.
Francis leaves to treasure his memory: his wife, Rosalind; daughters, Karen (Mark) Fulford, Kathleen Pelman and Jennifer (Jeff) Burchell; grandchildren Zachary (Lauren) Fulford, Joshua Fulford, Melissa Burchell, Justine Burchell, Elizabeth Burchell and Hannah Burchell.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his siblings Marian, Charles, Edna and Willanna.
