Vickie-
I just learned about Frank's passing. His wonderful smile and beautiful eyes will be reminded, as well as a kind soul. I'm sad to know you've lost your life partner. If you want to talk, please call.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Frank's death. I was on the museum's curatorial staff (ancient Americas) while he was an educator, and I've never forgotten him. He was a very thoughtful, creative, and sensitive fellow, and working with him was a pleasure through-and-through. His imaginative, fun proposal for an education program based on the Mesoamerican ballgame lingers in memory and, at the time, gave me the strength to go on. I'm sorry I lost track of him after he left the museum, and send sincere condolences to his family and friends.
