Jacqueline, Anne and Claire,

I am so sorry for your loss. I only met Frank a couple of times at work and Anne's wedding and I recall him as a very kind and thoughtful man. He certainly played his part in producing a wonderful family. Somebody once said "When you do something for yourself it dies with you. When you do something for others it lives in perpetuity". It's obvious he did much for others. My heart goes out to you all.

Frank found the time to be an always thoughtful friend and advisor to a little program out in California, based at the University of California. Always kind, generous, and full of ideas and pearls of wisdom, Frank was a tremendous resource and friend to us. On behalf of the University of California, we are all deeply saddened and full of sorrow upon learning of this devastating loss. Our thoughts are with Frank's family and friends.
