I was sorry to see in Sunday's paper (August 10) that Frank Christy had died. Frank swam at the municipal pool in Warwick for many years, and I knew him from there. He was very knowledgeable about finance, particularly the tax laws. He helped many people (including me), both at the pool and elsewhere. His mind was sharp to the end. Since he stopped going to the pool some months ago, he has been missed. His family can feel sure that Frank will be fondly remembered. My condolences to his family.
