Nancy,Tami,John,Gary, Cherie and Bob.As Frank's brother-in-law I have lots of good memories. Frank was a great cook.I remember him explaining to Audrey why they needed that new chair more than anything else. He always found the best buy on a used car and they were all great cars. Frank drove down to LAUREL center.not knowing where it was,to play his accordian for his mother-in-law and all the elderly. They loved it.I last talked to him in August? and he told me about the wonderful DVD Tami made for him,of their homes beacause his health wouldn't allow hih to properly visit.Tami's husband ,Dan helped make the vidio.Frank was a great brother-in-law and will be missed.Sending all our love and condolences. Uncle TOM and Aunt Penny.

Uncle Frank, you are loved and greatly missed. Surely, God is rewarding you for those treasured telephone calls, you would take the time to place, to give me faith, hope and always a laugh. Your wisdom on the importance of forgiveness was powerful enough to save souls. Surely, you heard the words, "Well done good, and faithful servant ... (Matthew 25:23)".

Aunt Nancy, Tami, John, Gary, Cherie, and Bob our prayers are with you. What a loss of a genuine loving, kind-hearted man.

Love, Karen, and Kristin Schoch (Chuba)
