Frank was a real good friend. We shared some common interests and I went to his shop out in the backside a number of times to marvel at his woodcarving, machine shop and other items he was working on when his sight was good. When he couldn't see good later he had a magnifier screen he could see some of his diagrams on.

Frank was a good friend and a jack of all trades. He had a machine shop and all kind of tools including wood carving. I bought several items from him and enjoyed being in his workshop and seeing all the things he made.

Frankie was not only a very good friend of our family. He and Emma were the Godparents to our first born daughter Taryn. We will miss him dearly as we shall always keep him and Emma in our daily prayers.

I remember Frank to be a very good person. He was a woodcarver,a machinest, and could fix or build abouit anything. I have a motorized tool sharpener Frank built for me many years ago before he lost his eyesight. Frank enjoyed going out for breakfast and gabbing with his woodcarving buddies. He will be missed.
