I would like to give my condolences to my "sister" Elaine (we are technically first cousins), to Joe, Kristina, Jane, Peter, Nicholas, Toby, Alexander, and Ashley and other family and friends. I'm proud of Frank and Elaine and their (adult) children for coping so well for so long with this unfortunate disease. With such good family care and love, hopefully
Frank got some extra "quality" time on this Earth. I truly hope so. In any case, I could
never hold a candle to the family's devotion to their husband/father. I've never heard Elaine complain. I'll always remember how I felt
when she said, "He's my friend. I want to help him for as long as I can." I was struck and thought that friendship was a very good basis of a marriage! I heard about the well-behaved grandchildren and I know Frank would be so proud of that! God Bless the
Wojcik family.
