WHY GRIZZLIES GIVE . . .
Kokomo, Ind.
George ’59 and I met while attending Franklin. I don’t think either of us could have imagined the legacy we would enjoy as a result of our shared college experience. I was an elementary education major and Tri Delta member, and George was a pre-law major and Lambda Chi Alpha member. I spent most of my teaching career working for Lebanon (Ind.) schools while George had his own real estate firm. All three of our daughters attended Franklin College, Pam (Anderson) Burpo ’84, Kim (Anderson) Arrowood ’87 and Amy (Anderson) Godby ’89. We were also blessed to have four of our grandchildren attend Franklin, Elizabeth (Burpo) King ’10, Laura (Burpo) O’Brien ’12, Sam Godby ’18 and Nate Arrowood ’21.
“Attending Franklin College was one of the most cherished experiences George and I shared in life. Financially supporting the place where we learned and grew so much is an easy decision. Our family loves Franklin College, and we want to do our part to sustain a great place that impacts the lives of young people.
