I used to work with Frank at Hay Management Consultants. A lovely man. He and all the family are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time.
Franklin John Hartle (4 Oct 1943 - 19 Sep 2020)
Funeral Director
In loving memory of Franklin John Hartle who sadly passed away on 19th September 2020, in Spain, unexpectedly.
Franklin was a vibrant, caring man, always seeking to find new ways and opportunities in life and for people. A quiet, intelligent person, with a love for travel, all things music, education and thinking outside the box. He inspired all who loved, worked or knew him from the smallest passing moment to a lifetime of memories. He loved adventure, music, travelling, and embraced this while working across the globe during his long career and retirement. He has permanently instilled and shared these passions in his children, grandchildren and all that he has known throughout his life.
Shirley, Sally and Joanna would very much like you to share memories here and photos of both the life-changing moments and funny encounters along the way.
We are aware that many cannot sadly be with us to celebrate Franklin's Life in person at this time. We welcome you to share a moment with us to raise a glass of your favourite tipple and remember him fondly.

You can login to our website at any time to view a test connection (and we strongly recommend you do this) but you'll only be able to view the Live Webcast approx. 5 mins before the service start time.
Please be aware this is a public building and the timing of the Live webcast is semi-automated to allow for services running early or late – please use your discretion if you can see activities not applicable to the service you are here to watch.
Once the service has finished, it will take us up to 3 working days to get the 28-day Watch Again onto the website.
As Franklin wished, there are to be no flowers at the funeral aside from ones from Shirley and the Girls. Instead we ask that, should you wish, you donate to one of his passions. The family thought that it would be wonderful to create a legacy fund in his memory; this would honour his involvement in education and aspirational leadership.
Franklin's family have asked that The St Christopher School will establish a legacy project in his memory. Franklin Hartle was Chair of Governors at The St Christopher School and has been involved with the school for over 20 years. He was also Chair of Trustees for Southend SEN Trust.
To contribute to the legacy fund, please use the following details:
https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/franklinhartlelegacyproject
Please highlight link and copy and paste into browser.
All monies raised will go toward a legacy project in recognition of Franklin's dedication and hard work in our schools, to support children with special needs by developing leaders for the future. Its aim is to support aspiration and leadership across Southend SEN Trust focusing at The St Christopher School.
The family hope that this legacy will continue to change lives for a long time to come, something that Franklin truly believed in.
We look forward to reading your memories!
