Thank you everyone for your kind words. I will miss Frank, the love of my life, forever. The support that we received from everyone was overwhelming. Frank's doctors and the staff on 4North at St. Lukes were incredible. We will all get through this together with the same determination that Frank had, he never gave up and would not expect us to. We have a large family and a huge extended family which we will all lean on.
