George Edward Wall, age 92 of Franklin, TN passed away February 19, 2019.
George lived a full and fruitful life. After starting as a baker's assistant he entered the army at the end of WWII.

He sang lead in a gospel quartet for many years and spent much of his musical life singing on local northwestern Iowa radio as well as regional and national television broadcasts.

He loved his wife and served her through her final days before moving to Franklin in 2011. He was an Advisory Board member at Generations Church pastored by his son, Kraig Wall. George's family and faith were the center of his life. He loved the Lord and read the Word daily.
