Franklin W Alger

I spent 20+ years active duty in the U. S. Marine Corps retiring as a Gunnery Sergeant. I currently live in Casa Grande, AZ with my wife, Mary. I have three kids- my youngest my son Caleb, who is married and both he and his wife, Brianna, are RN's working in Pensacola FL and have three kids. My oldest daughter, Ashley, lives in Phoenix, AZ with her four kids. My youngest daughter, Hannah, is married and lives in Junction City, Kansas, with her husband, Ben, an Army Reservist (with four years active Duty) and my youngest grandson.
I was an Assisted Living Facility Manager in AZ from 2002 to 2019 and been involved in Healthcare since 1989 when my wife and I started caring for her grandmother while I was on Recruiting Duty in Denver Colorado. I have taught at the Arizona Medical Training Institute (formerly the RSAA TRAINING Institute) from 2003 to 2009 training Caregivers and Assisted Living Facility Managers. I am currently an Enrollment Representative at the University of Phoenix.
I am very involved in the community through the Young Marines, VFW, American Legion, Marine Corps League, DAV, and Desert Gateway Baptist church. Besides being very involved in the community, I enjoy spending time with my family and I am a professional Photographer. The whole family are avid readers and enjoy board games and various hobbies. One unique hobby that I have is Leather Crafting. I make wallets, belts, Saddles, and various other things out of leather.
