Lauren Robinso sent Heartfelt Memories for Frenchie D Watkins - December 09, 2025

Had the pleasure of meeting them both here in Metro Atlanta, even though I'm a fellow Selma resident , I personally met them here. I met Frenchie at one of the local corner stores and it was a pleasure. We'd reminisce about home and share plenty of laughs. Met his sister at the medical facility where I worked and of course we also shared memories of our hometown. They both were very nice people and I know they with be greatly missed . Condolences on the family members and friends on their passing.
