Norfolk – Maurice Franklin (Frank) Price died Thursday, February 25, 2016 at the

College. He was in the Army Air Corps during World War II where he served his 
country as a pilot instructor in heavy bombers.
Mr. Price retired as treasurer of Royster Guano Corporation where he was

of his children graduated from Norfolk Catholic. He was an active member of Holy
