Thoughts go out to Dorothy and her family on behalf of my mother Jean Barton (Nee Goodwin) cousin of Dorothy in Macclesfield, England.
I met Frank while over in South Athabasca in 1980 and remember as a young man having a conversation with Frank at Stan and Marion Goodwin's place. It was a pleasure to have met him. Peter Barton. England

I enjoyed my time with Frank, in Caucus and in the Legislature.
We served concurrent terms.
Athabasca was well represented by Frank Appleby. His family and friends have reason to be proud.

So sorry for your loss. What a good long life Frank enjoyed. Love never fails. It hopes all things, endures all things, believes all things and bears all things.

We were saddened to hear of Frank's recent passing and offer sincere condolences to Dorothy, family and friends. Frank was truly a 'friend' of forestry and always took the time to stay active and supportive of the regulated forestry profession. His service to the College of Alberta Professional Foresters (then Alberta Registered Professional Foresters Association)in the early days of its establishment as a self-regulated profession were invaluable. He served as our first public member on the governing Council and was named as an Honourary Member upon 'retirement'. The top award of the College is named in his honour. We will always fondly remember Frank as a true friend of forestry and the forest sector.

Brian & Dorothy,
Pat & Dave's Hunter cabin at Baptiste Lake was such a meaningful part of my childhood. Now I end my career at the College of Alberta Professional Foresters. So nice to have seen Frank at the Athabasca Town centenary celebration.

I would like to say thank you to Frank, Dorothy, Brian and all the Appleby family that played such an important part of my life growing up at Baptiste Lake and playing sports in junior and senior high school. I have many good memories from this time and I know that these experiences helped me become a better person. May all your good memories help you during this difficult time.

Fondly remembering Frank and you Dorothy. I recall the nomination meeting when the sound system left me whispering to the many hundreds welcoming Frank on for another run at the Legislature!!
May your love and good memories help you through this time.

I will always remember Frank fondly for his involvement in the community, especially around the Nancy Appleby Theatre, most specifically when he performed our wedding service as a JP nearly 30 years ago. He is well remembered and will be missed.

Dorothy
It was amazing that I got to interview Frank and you before his 100th birthday. He was a remarkable man and remembered many stories about his time at the legislature. He was someone who was justifiably proud of the things he accomplished. What a great life!
