After moving to Murfreesboro, Tennessee in 1992, Mr. Edmondson worked in the school system at McFadden Elementary School and Rockvale School. He was fondly known as Mr. Frank, always wearing a smile for students and faculty. After leaving the school district, Mr. Edmondson began working in his workshop more regularly and enjoyed good movies and television. 

Mr. Edmondson later became a member of the Northminster Presbyterian Church in Murfreesboro.
