Nieces, Margaret Langworthy of Denver, Co, Joan Daniels of Tucson, Az and nephew David Langworthy of Tucson extend their heartfelt sympathy to the Frothingam brothers and families. Our memories are from our youth when we, as young children, knew Aunt Tish and Uncle Tony and later as adults we experienced their kindness in many ways. Tony's good humor and "that's a definite maybe" sayings endeared him to us. We wish you comfort in knowing that your parents kindly touched many people and, in that, ensured their own legacy.
