We just got the sad news that our Photography teacher, Leon H. Frankamp passed away this morning May 29, 2019. Aside from being one of our favorite teachers and by every measure, a wonderful man, he has always held a special place in our hearts as being the teacher in whose class we met. Beside teaching photography, he also taught science at Burbank High. All of the greatest blessings in our lives, 42 years of marriage, wonderful children and two very cute grandsons, are traceable back to him. Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers.
He passed peacefully in his sleep, at home, surrounded by family. He was a blessing to many, and blessed by many. He was a remarkable man who leaves a legacy of serving and loving others, as God's Word instructs us to do. He changed many lives in his work with Habitat for Humanity. Many people in my home town, Clarksdale, MS, as well as other communities, and as well as the students who worked on the Habitat teams under his guidance were blessed by his teaching, coaching, and the Christian witness he lived daily.
