One more candle in our family has been extinguished ... now Frank resides on the other side of the great river of life with our parents and sister ... he was my inspiration and hero, allowing me to face adversity and cowboy up in times of difficulty.

I never asked him to be anything more than just my brother ... he filled that role with dignity and honor as only a big brother and mentor could ... gone but never forgotten.
