I am so very sorry to hear this news... Frank was always there to help and a friend to all on Mt. Lemmon. He helped me plant trees, and remove two fallen trees from the roof of my cabin. He was a very kind and caring man. Sympathy and condolences to the family. We will all miss him very much! Peace Be With You Frank.

Went to get my mail at the Mt Lemmon Post Office today and realized I will never again be greeting him there and receiving his enthusiastic response followed by some conversation. I will miss his presence.

We miss Frank's big smile and great hugs. The mountain has not been the same without him. We will look forward to those big hugs in Heaven again, someday. Prayers of peace for Frank's Family.

Your dad was a special friend to my husband and I. He was always smiling and willing to help anytime I needed him at our cabin. He loved to come to Sunday church services on Mt. Lemmon. His joy was inspiring plus he always volunteered to sing in the "choir" and lift his hands in praise to God. We will miss him. God bless all his family. Love, Denny and Leigh Anne Thrasher
