Chris Zigler Franks, SS ’72 has retired. Chris came to South Side after 18 years at Lincoln National Life Insurance. She had held the Guidance Office chair since April 6, 1990 through twenty-eight generations of graduating Archers and four principals. She served Jack Weicker, Jennifer Manth SS ‘62, Tom Smith, Carlton Mable SS ‘88, and “a lot of good people,” she told Archer Arrows. In 2015, she was inducted into South Side’s Quarter Century Club. Chris quietly celebrated her induction and her years at South. Thank you, Chris, you are missed.
