Enid and Frieda,
We met when we bought our house. Two happy events;we realized a dream and we gain a family. Since then we became so close to eachother, Frank was as everyone knows so kind, so wise always with a good advice and just a pleasure to be around him. We all loved him and he will still be in our hearts and memories forever.

Sorry to hear about Frank's passing. I was in Woodridge 2 years ago and bumped into him at Slater's. I have known your family for about 45 years, so I am truly sorry for your loss. Time will help you to get over your loss.
