I was a deputy clerk in the State Court of Cobb County during the 1970s. Mr. Gore was always really nice to all the employees - not just Judges and lawyers, but all the office staff. I remember his smile, and just being nice to all of us.
I remember when I first started attending First Austell Baptist. How much I was encouraged and welcomed by Frank and Shirley Gore, among others. They were always a striking couple. Their love and respect for others had a magnetism that just drew you in. Frank was a rare gem among men. A loving devoted, family man. A true man of God in spirit and action. It is with my deepest regret that I'm unable to attend his home going and offer my sincere condolences in person. My love goes out to Shirley, Susan and the rest of his family and friends.
We first met the Gores when we joined Austell First Baptist and they were the kind of folks who made you feel right at home from the beginning. You never saw Frank that he didn't have that awesome smile and a friendly hug. Shirley was his sweetheart and they were so cute and affectionate with each other and conversed as if they were dancing...a natural flow of love and respect. They welcomed us into their hearts, lives and their home many times. It's hard to imagine one without the other and my heart breaks for his beautiful bride, Shirley. Susan, I am praying for God to give you strength as you face this painful blow of a loss and as you tend to your sweet, precious mama. God keep you all in his tender care. Love and prayers, Pat and Scott
The Jerkins Family has nothing but fond memories of growing up just down the street
"by the tracks" from Frank and his Mom and Dad. Austell has lost one of its most
notable citizens.
Susan, please know that we are thinking of you and your family. May God touch you
in a special way in the days ahead.
