Uncle Frank,
Its hard to believe a year has gone by since we lost you. We think of you every day and miss you dearly. You were more like a father to me than an Uncle, and more like a Grandfather to the boys. You treated everyone with such kindness and compassion and brought a smile to the faces of all who knew you. You truly were a rare and remarkable person. I cant begin to tell you what a positive influence you were in my life and for that Im a better person. I love you very much "Unc" and I will treasure your memory for the remainder of my life. You will never be forgotten. Rest in peace....
Your Godson,
Bob

Frank,
For 57 years you were my husband and best friend. I treasured every minute that I had with you. Your passing has left a void in my life that can never be filled. You gave me a lifetime of happiness and for that I thank you. A day does not pass without you in my thoughts. I miss you terribly and I love you with all my heart.
Your wife forever,
Eleanor

I worked with Frank in the Advertising Department at Firestone and he always had a smile and was a big tease (since I was a newbie just out of high school). Loved his humor and his integrity. Truly a special person.

Eleanor and family: My sincere condolences to you on Frank's passing. I worked with Frank in
Firestone Advertising for many years and always enjoyed the interaction with him. He was one of the good guys. I'll always remember "Harget and Sawyer" and how they were good friends and big Manchester supporters.
