Frank G. Iddings Jr.

On Wednesday, May 6, 2009 Frank entered Heaven to be with his Lord for eternity.
He was born April 19, 1969 to Franklin G. Sr. & Patricia (Keister) Iddings at the Naval Air Station in Albany, Georgia.

On June 30, 1990 he married Joan Senter who survives in Cromwell along with their children Mandi Lee, Megan Joan, and Derek Eddie all at home. Other survivors include: his brothers, Charley of Albion, Bryan (Dorothy) of LaOtto, Leonard (Ginger) of Idaho and a sister Betty (Scott) Gamble of Albion. He was preceded in death by his grandparents along with several aunts and uncles.

Frank graduated from Central Noble in 1987. During his school years he was active in boxing, football, wrestling and bull riding. From 1993-2005 he was a stock car driver at New Paris Speedway. He began his coaching career early in 2000 while coaching his children at T-ball. Most recently was extremely involved with middle and high school football and wrestling. He loved “his kids” and seeing them not always win, but grow and learn. But his greatest accomplishment was in June of 2006 when he gave his life to the Lord. Frank was a member of the Shiloh Baptist Church in Ligonier, where he was a trustee. He often said his biggest regret in life was that he didn’t come to know the Lord sooner.
