Memorial Church of the Good Shepherd

A former resident of East Falls, Oliver St. Clair Franklin has served as the Honorary Consul for Greater Philadelphia since 1998. His ties to England go back to his studies at Balliol College at the University of Oxford. In 2007, he hosted the then-Prince of Wales and Camilla when they visited Philadelphia.
In November, he was appointed a Commander of the British Empire, the highest honor afforded to a non-Englishman. The CBE is just below knighthood. The Queen signed the official paperwork just three days before she died in September.
