Narrator | Many years ago, | 0:01 |
a railroad was built in Georgia. | 0:02 | |
It started in a town called West Point | 0:04 | |
and ended right here at East Point, | 0:07 | |
which is how the Atlanta suburb got it's name. | 0:10 | |
East Point is a growing community. | 0:15 | |
And one of the reasons is because people | 0:17 | |
like Andy Franklin live here. | 0:19 | |
Andy and his brother operate this Texaco station. | 0:22 | |
Here they are discussing a new promotion | 0:25 | |
for Havoline Motor Oil, | 0:27 | |
finest engine protection on the world. | 0:28 | |
Business keeps Andy pretty busy, | 0:31 | |
but he still finds time to devote many hours | 0:33 | |
to civic activities. | 0:35 | |
Here's Andy and his wife, Martha Jeanette, | 0:37 | |
proudly inspecting a new $150,000 annex of their church. | 0:39 | |
Andy is an elder and chairman of the building fund and his | 0:43 | |
wife is Co-President of the Sunday School. | 0:46 | |
And here comes their son Al. | 0:50 | |
Al is proud of being an Eagle Scout and his dad | 0:53 | |
is on the troop committee at the church. | 0:55 | |
In addition, Andy is a past District Governor | 0:58 | |
of the Civitan International, | 1:00 | |
with a special interest in the FairHaven School. | 1:02 | |
He's also a Sponsor of the local Bowling League and past | 1:05 | |
member of the Board of Directors of the Little League. | 1:09 | |
This is Andy Franklin. | 1:15 | |
Good family man, responsible citizen and Texaco dealer. | 1:17 | |
One of the more than 40,000 Texaco dealers | 1:21 | |
