It always makes me smile when I recall the duet that Frank and I sang in front of our fourth grade class. It was Barry Manilow's hit "Mandy". I don't know what possessed us except that we both loved that song. I saw Frank last about a year or so ago and we laughed about our Star Search moment. It will always be a fond memory for me. My sincere condolences to his family and friends. May he Rest In Peace.
