Franklin Junior Rowe

Franklin Junior Rowe passed away at his Gilbert home surrounded by his loving family.

Franklin was born in Black Oak, Arkansas to Curtis and Sybil Rowe. At the age of 13 his family moved to Arizona where Franklin lived out his life in Gilbert.

In 1962 he married his sweetheart Anita on his 18

th

birthday and remained happily married to her until her passing in 2014.

Franklin worked at Cemex from August 1973 until retiring in August 2016 after exactly 43 years of dedicated 15-hour days providing for his family. He enjoyed wood working, taking care of his yard, landscaping, fishing with his friends and grandchildren, and his daily 5 am five-mile walks or bicycling throughout Gilbert.

He is survived by his children Suzette Foshee, Deborah Rowe, Frank Rowe (Bradley), and Johnny Rowe (Elizabeth); six grandchildren, Brian (Johna), Evan, Tyler (Margaret), Brennon, Jadan, and Alexandra; five great-grandchildren, Kyle (Jordin), Jeremy, Brianna, Roman, Emma, and two great-great grandchildren, Alexis, and Remi.

His infectious laugh will be missed by many.

A Funeral Service will be held Saturday, March 18, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. at Whitney & Murphy Bueler Mortuary, 14 West Hulet Drive, Chandler, AZ 85225.
