What can I say about Frank that people don't already know? He was Frank that greatest friend you would ever want in your corner and in your heart.. You helped my daughter Mackenize beyond and you probably didn't even know what you did for her..You and Debbie are the best. Hey Frank can I ask you something, Who up in heaven are you making asking to pick up your change??? I know the "The Frog". I love you Frank and you are forever in my heart.. You are deeply missed... Fly high my friend fly high... Love, Jean McFarland ##55
