Daddy stumbled in last night and handed this to Melvin. He wore Mammas clothes and church wig to bed.
Frank "Marge" Malone, age 47 found dead in Tyler, Texas.
Frank "Marge" Malone, was born and raised just outside Kilgore, the only son of Dwayne and Dolores Malone, who came across from Arkansas about twenty-years after the oil rush, hoping to cash in on a dream which never materialized. Turning to petty crime, Dolores was often in and out of the local jail while Dwayne turned tricks to pay for Frank's education. Once Frank turned 18 he left the small community of 12,000 for the big city of Dallas, hitching a ride with a traveling circus, where he stayed on, barking professionally until strict government animal treatment laws forced the circus to close their doors in 1982. Without a job, and living in an apartment he could no longer afford in Forrest Park, Frank began a life of philanthropy, giving away all his personal possessions and living the free life his parents had always hoped he'd be able to live, away from the bounds of company credit. Little is known about Frank's activities during this period, except that he made his way across North Texas, staying in smaller town, usually incognito, which more and more frequently found him in drag, rumored to have been dodging a group of circus midgets to whom he owed money. He was a frequent supporter of truck stops and made friends easily wherever he chose to call home.
Smith County Sheriffs Department are still investigating the unusual circumstances surrounding Mr. Malone's death and weren't available for comment, however, it was suggested that seven pairs of "little" footprints were found on the scene as well as a small bottle of trucker speed, flashlight and hand lotion with a double action pump.
