    On the Sackett side, Francis is the son of Royal Leonard Sackett and
    grandson of David Alexander Sackett and Mary Shaw. Francis has always
    been most proud of his Ancestry dating back so many years in this
    country in 1631.

    submitted by Patty Sackett wife of David Andrew Sackett of Grants Pass,
    Oregon. Uncle Francis will be missed for his loving ways of always
    bringing a bit of brightness to each persons day that met up with him.
    Always had a ready smile, a helpful friendly word, a good joke, even on
    days when he was not feeling so good, and very easily let all of us know
    that he loved us and always was so pleased for any little thing that we
    did for him. I looked after Uncle Francis for the past few years as he
    became weaker and my family and I will miss him so much. We would like
    to ask you for a prayer or kind thought to be said on his behalf
    expecially on Tuesday as he will be laid to rest in a Catholic Buriel
    Service.
    Thank you so much,
    Patty and Dave Sackett
