bpoc1 Rest in Peace United States 4078 Posts	Posted 08/08/2022 3:20 pm Commems, my wife was born and raised in the same town as Frank Murphy, Harbor Beach MI. Both her Grandfathers were friends of Frank. We now live here and Murphy's house has been turned into a museum. Report this Post to the Staff
