Franklin Richard Sleeper III

(1960 - 1993)

   My son Frankie was a musician, his stage name was "Frankie Kidd". He was pretty well known for his guitar playing. In his short life he played with some big named bands, but unfortunately he allowed his drug use to rule his life which resulted in him getting infected with the Aids virus. His last wish was to get the word out to young people and below is the message. My wish as his Mother was that he died knowing we loved him in spite of his self destruction...............................................
