He was born at his grandparent's farm near Yale, South Dakota. As a young boy, he grew up in the Yale and Onida area. Sadly, he lost his mother at the age of ten, and at the age of 14 he left home to live with the Glanzer Family near Yale. He joined the Navy during the Korean War. After his honorable discharge, he returned to Onida and started Stahl's Mobil Service. Francis met his wife, Norma, and they married at Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Onida. Together they raised three children, Sandy, Mike, and Kathi. In 1966, the family moved to Longmont, Colorado where Francis was a union carpenter. In 1972, the family returned to SD (Redfield) where he once again started Stahl's Mobile Service. Tragically they lost their oldest daughter, Sandy, in a car accident at the age of 19. In 1980, he returned to Colorado (Grand Junction) and resumed his career as a union carpenter, mostly working commercial construction. Following his retirement, he built several homes in the valley, including one for he and his wife, son, and daughter. After 26 years, he and Norma decided to down-size and moved into a patio home. Francis was very well-loved in the neighborhood and enjoyed visits from his friends as they walked by. He was preceded in death by his daughter, Sandra Kay; sister, Bernette, and her husband, Leo; brothers, Willie and Albin, and brother-in-law, Sam Jarnagin. Francis is survived by his wife, Norma; son, Michael and his wife, Nancy and grandson, Ryan; daughter, Kathi; brother, Woody and his wife, Barb; sister-in-law, Helen Stahl, and numerous nieces and nephews whom he loved dearly. Also surviving is a family very special to him, Dave, Dara, Ethan, Parker, and Makenna Hartmann.
