Franklin Deering's life of 50 years can be characterized by the phrase Put me in the game coach. An athlete since he could walk, he learned valuable lessons that influenced how he lived his life. Always willing to do what it took to win the game for the team. He was a loyal family member and friend. When it came time to step up to the plate, he was there. His love for children and his family was infectious and obvious.
