Very sorry to hear of Frans demise. She was a very kind and sweet girl. Had a couple of classes with her. She was always very plesant and always would say Hello and talk. Looks like she really had a wonderful life, sorry it ended now. Rest in Peace Dear Fran,
There are very few people I remember I guess I was always on the outside, but I really wish I had known her. BDHaEmet
Fran Golden, 76, passed away on Aug. 16, 2023. Born in Cleveland, Ohio to Morris and Celia Feldman, Fran graduated from Cleveland Heights High School in 1965. She matriculated to The Ohio State University where she majored in physical education and minored in dance. Fran graduated from OSU in 1969 and began working in the Columbus Public Schools. She taught physical education for a few years at the junior high school level before beginning to raise a family. She later taught physical education at Columbus Torah Academy.
In the fall of 1966, Fran met Ron Golden at Ohio State. They became engaged in 1967 and got married in 1968. They celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary this month.
Fran, an avid sports fan and entrepreneur, started her own aerobic dance program with hundreds of students at the adult level. She was “ahead of her time” with her programming. After several years of incorporating her athletic prowess and business skill, she started into another endeavor, namely, Party People Invitations. This business venture allowed Fran to work with families who were celebrating a variety of occasions utilizing Fran’s personal skills and charm.
A member of Beth Jacob Congregation since 1968, Fran has served on the Board of Trustees for several decades. In 2006, Fran was the recipient of the Keser Shem Tov Award (the Crown of a Good Name) presented at the synagogue’s annual testimonial dinner.
A lady of many talents and class, Fran is survived by her husband of 55 years, Ron, along with sons Eric (Leslie) and Steve (Staci) and grandchildren Jackson, Samantha and Griffin. Fran also is survived by
her sister Linda (Mike) Marlin and her brother-in-law, Farrel (Kim) Golden; nieces and nephews Eva and Ben Golden, and Evan and Jennifer Benjamin, along with many other family members and friends..
Funeral services were held on Thursday, Aug. 17 at Epstein Memorial Chapel with Interment at New Beth Jacob Cemetery. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Beth Jacob Congregation (www.bjcolumbus.org)

It's quite gratifying to learn that at least one of our classmates was a cowboy.
Yipee ki yi ay, Bruce.
Wow! Another Cleveland Heights Friend gone. These events are coming way to often. Met Bruce at Monticello jr HIgh in the 7th grade. He was an awesome Guy. Very friendly, fun to be around and a good friend. He was always cheerful and if you needed someone to talk to either good or bad he always would lend an ear, If it was good he would cngratulate you and if bad he would counsoul you. Whatever it was you were glad he was there to share your joy or concerns. He also (at least in Junior High) was quite the "Ladies Man". The girls liked his good looks and charm. Lost track of him after High School. Now I see he walks the streets of Gold. I am glad our paths crossed and had the honor of knowing "Bruce". Rest in Peace my Brother. My extreme sympathy to his Family and Friends.

From Robert Host:
Bruce and I were neighbors in Cleveland Heights, going to Monticello Jr.High and Heights High. We worked on a ranch together in Colorado the summer of 1965, After which we parted ways until about 5 years ago. We both pursued different career paths but accidentally through FaceBook, we learned of our family, friends and locations. Bruce had become a strong follower of The Jesus Christ Latter- Day Saints, and besides his Family and Friends, this was his ultimate goal in life. Bruce was a dear friend and I will miss him greatly . Rest in peace my friend ! Bob Host
