My sympathies goes out to the Drake's family. As the first scientist to use radio astronomy to search for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence, he has left a memorable legacy. May God grant you peace of mind and heart to deal with this loss.

The family has my sympathy, may you continue to support each other during this most difficult time, also continue to trust in God to bring you comfort.

Frank's knowledge and perseverance in the search for extraterrestrial life were outstanding. As an astronomer myself I spent a week at Arecibo. I too will one day be among the stars. See you there Frank.
