Frank's sister, Bonner, always remembered his teaching her how to drive a car, I think, a Nash.

Frank and Bonner can now be together again. Maybe they will share this story.

Bonner celebrated her new life on 11/12/13.

Frank always had a smile whenever we saw each other. Although we were never close friends, he was a nice neighbor. Vaya Con Dios.
