Hard to believe another year has passed. With this weekend being Memorial Day, many of us are remembering those that we lost during the different conflicts of war that our country has been in. You will never be forgotten and are missed greatly.

Hello Warren. Almost 17 years have passed since I have been writing to you here. It seems like it was yesterday when I wrote to you for the first time. I am grateful to you for bringing Sophia and Isabelle into our lives. I have not forgotten about you! I think about you all the time. You will always be remembered.
Love-Steve, your father in law.

Hello Warren, I'm confident that you are looking after your daughters right now as you have been ever since November 25, 2008. You are remembered by me, my daughter Allison Frank, Isabelle Frank and Sophia Frank. You are proud of your daughters, this I know. Warren, my son-in-law, you are missed by me as well. I remember riding up to Ramona one time to see your cousins. You shared your goals with me. I was very happy to know how much you wanted to do something for humanity. Please carry on that drive from above through your daughters.
Always and forever your father-in-law Steve.

Had a good laugh thinking about you yesterday as I explained in detail to my neighbors who you were. Then Lt. Frank, told the Company CO he wanted to take his Marines out for a while to do some 4x4 training while we had some down time in 29 Palms. We literally got to drive around tearing up Humvees in the desert for hours while we all laughed and had a great time (platoon commander included). Thats how we were introduced to our new 2nd Lt. and from that day forward he was our guy! Thanks for the memories 6, we miss you tons brother. Until Valhalla.

Dearest Andrew:
Marc ran the Marine Marathon today, in honor of you!! He was doing really well and was hoping to finish in under 4 hours, but at mile 14.5 he injured his knee. But he kept hobbling and walking to the finish. He knew you were watching and cheering him on to the finish. We know you were guiding him to the finish. Bless you our friend, we miss you deeply and glad you are such a good influence for Marc.

My condolences to the family of Capt. Warren Frank. I just learned about Capt. Frank from an article in the Cincinnati Enquirer for Memorial Day, 2014. I wanted to read about his life and service. My father served in the 88th Infantry in Italy during WWII. By the end of the war, 9 of the 12 men in Dad's squad were dead. My father taught me never to forget those who "gave all" for their country. Capt. Frank, thank you for your service and sacrifice. You are honored and remembered today.
November 26, 2013
Dearest Andrew, It's been five long years without you, but I still write and somehow I know you can see this. We all miss you and the old neighborhood just is not the same without you. Peace to you on this Holiday weekend.

Each package will carry the name, photo and the hometown of Warren A. Frank US Marine Captain. We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals from across the American youth hockey community. We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you strong.
Sincerely,

Captain Frank, words cannot describe the feeling that I felt when I heard the news. After serving with you in Iraq in 2007 and staying right next to you at the base, I felt we bonded. I highly respected you so much, I thought of you not only as an inspirational leader, my officer, but also someone who took the time to listen and showed GENUINE concern over what I was feeling. You are truly missed, and I look forward to the day, where we will be able to laugh and joke again. R.I.P. Love you sir!!!!

Honor and Remember” - “Project Compassion” We love our Soldiers! We love our country and we cannot express enough love and compassion to the families of our fallen heroes. War does not discriminate – It breaks our hearts to see the faces of the fallen. We want to give this gift to the hero’s Mother, Father and/or spouse. We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization! Almost 2,000 portraits have been completed and shipped to the parents and or spouse - at no cost as this is a gift from one American to another!
This is a gift! We have wonderful sponsors who help with the costs, and want you know that everyone here at Project Compassion does and will always CARE.
Contact us directly at [email protected] or go to www.heropaintings.com . If you have already had a portrait completed, we pray that you are enjoying the portrait and God Bless You.
Sincerely and Respectfully,

Hubs,
It's been over a year now, I really can't believe it has been so long. Time goes by so fast taking care of the girls. They are getting so big now. Sophia is one smart little girl. Loves her music, book, coloring, and most importantly dress-up. We have reached the princess stage. Izzy is just too funny. I really wish you could see her, you would get such a kick out of her. She is always so happy, and just laughs and laughs. Our little chunky monkey. She is starting to talk now too, and is using her sign lang. just like Sophia did. I hope the job I am doing is making you proud. I miss you so much hubs. You will always be my heart.

May God give comfort to your family always. The first year is the hardest because you are so numb and that's followed by the second year of the "thaw". Know that your family isn't alone in their grief and there are many of us who grieve with them.

Your girls are well loved by all-you are all always in our thoughts and prayers.
We miss you Andrew...thank you for being a hero to us all and to our country-you will never be forgotten.
