ROBIN and DAVID KIMBALL
explored their options before coming to
Frenchman’s Creek. The Massachusetts residents had family in Arizona, but decided
to look around the east coast of Florida. About seven years ago, the Kimballs were in
Boca Raton, at the Boca Beach Club, and were impressed with the weather and the
amenities. They rented an apartment and joined The Falls, a country club in Lake
Worth. The following year, they bought a condominium in Palm Beach, on the ocean,
and David became active in the home owners association there. But they started
thinking about the next 20 years and decided that a country club residence suited their
needs, so they looked at many of the country club communities along the
Treasure Coast and decided that Frenchman’s Creek was the place for them.
David is happily retired. He designed and manufactured protective packaging for
industry (computer manufacturers, aircraft). Robin is an artist who, over the past 30
years, has designed jewelry and Judaica. Currently her oil paintings are being sold at
Onessimo Gallery at the PGA Commons and she is creating one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces.
The Kimballs have two children. Daughter Stephanie lives with her husband and two children in Hingham, MA, and son
Dan and his wife Candice reside in Greenbrae, CA, just north of San Francisco, with their two children.
Welcome to Robin and David. We wish you a great life at Frenchman’s Creek.

We welcome,
MARK HURD and KEVIN KRAMP
as new residents to Frenchman’s
Creek. Mark was brought up in Oklahoma and Kevin is Florida bred. Before coming to
Frenchman’s, the gentlemen lived in Newport Beach, California - Balboa Island to be
exact. They decided it was time to leave California as their quaint village became a roar-
ing tourist destination, plus lack of water and the color green. They have a 21 foot Duffy
Sun Cruiser and wanted a place to be able to cruise it so the intracoastal
attracted them to South Florida. First, however, they researched Nevada. They
narrowed down their search to the Palm Beach Area and when Kevin saw the property
knew this was the place for them without even knowing the amenities we have to offer. It
had tennis courts, a swimming pool and a place for their boat to be docked in back of
their house. They are full time residents. Before retiring, Kevin worked at the University
of California for 27 years as Director of Finance for three of the different schools within
the university. Mark was in the food and beverage and catering business besides his
family business. They are so friendly and at times take turns being laid back but are
really full of fun. We predict they will have many friends very soon and wish them good
luck and many years of happy times at the Creek.
