Frank and Lucille were my parents' (Nell and Ralph Racer) best friends. And my dear friends as well. Kind and gentle, smart and funny - that was Frank. He told my Mother, who was at their house upon receiving news of her Mother's death: "Don't worry, Nell, she is being attended by 1000's of angels!" He gave her courage, and comforted me beyond measure when my Father was dying. I will never forget you, Frank. Thank you for you beautiful life.

Frank Hill took my senior picture as a member of Brookville High School class of 1966. He took the picture in late summer of 1965. He also took my brother's photo, class of 1964.

Our Dear Man, Frank Hill, was so special to so many people. As one of The Ageless Wonders, I fully appreciated all that he offered to the group; and, I had the distinct pleasure of working with Frank at Tharp in Lynchburg before I had to leave to care for a sister dying in Massachusetts.
May Frank rest in peace, with his beloved Lucille, in God's care.
