Eleanor and family - My thoughts and prayers are with each one of you as you go through this very difficult time in your lives. I knew Frank from the days in the mid-1950's when we were both teaching at Ionview Public School. I was pleased to meet him again at the Ionview School reunion, a few years ago.

Frank was a teaching colleague at Ionview Public when I first started teaching. His reputation, described in the obituary, described him as he also was early in his career as a teacher.My deepest sympathy to Eleanor and family.

Eleanor and family, please accept my sympathy. I taught at Ionview Public School with Frank and respected him very much as a vice-principal.

I knew Frank from our days of teaching in the Scarborough Board of Education. We both spent 35 years with Board and retired as Principals.
Frank was a good friend to all who worked with him.
We moved to Vernon, B.C. shortly after I retired in 1993, so have not chatted with Frank for many years.
I offer sincere sympathy to all of Frank's family.
