The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure brought out at least 5,000 participants. Among those participants was the staff of Franklin-Strickland Funeral Directors.

Franklin-Strickland Funeral Directors is the oldest Afro-American Funeral Home in the city of Chattanooga and its staff made a decision to participate in this year’s Race for the Cure.

“We all know someone who has been affected in some way by this disease and we want to contribute to helping them find a cure” said Tonja Walls-Davis, general manager of Franklin-Strickland Funeral Directors.

“This year was our first year participating and we exceeded our goal. Next year we will top this year's amount,” stated Mrs. Walls-Davis.

The staff of Franklin-Strickland Funeral Directors thanked all of those who contributed funds, toward their company goal.

Franklin-Strickland Funeral Directors cordially invites the public to attend their 55th anniversary in service to the Chattanooga Community, by attending the renaming of the McCallie Chapel to the Rueben Strickland Memorial Chapel. This event will take place on Monday, Oct. 29, at the McCallie Avenue location starting at 10 a.m. with festivities lasting until 4 p.m.
