Obituary: Franklin Marcum

Frank was born to Mary Jane (nee Ezsol) and Frank D. Marcum in Oxford, Ohio on Feb. 1, 1958. 

He was the beloved husband of Susan (nee Ridenour) Marcum; devoted father of the late Leslie Paul Marcum, Bryanna (Kyle Murr) Marcum, Kayla (Derek Burgess) Marcum and stepfather of Jada (Chad) Farler, Kyle Pieratt and the late Shaday Bowling; cherished grandfather of Kyzer Murr, Brynlee Murr, Abbie Marcum, Lexi Bresher and step-grandfather of Trevor (Kaylee) Rich, Hayle Conklin, Kruze Pieratt, Kyrinn Pieratt, Kohen Pieratt and six great step-grandchildren; and dear brother of Debbie Hoskins, Joan (Wes) Clayton and Midge (Kevin) Campbell. Frank was an outdoorsman who loved to be outside. 

He loved going fishing and would always find something to hunt for, whether it was animals, mushrooms or rocks. But more than anything he loved his family. He was a wonderful father, was well known, and well loved. He will be deeply missed.
