Not sure what to say?

I grew up next door to Pancho and his family. He always had time to say hello and smile. My sympathies to his family.

I would often join Frank, Hank, and my dad--Ed as they dined together in the west wing of the VA home. Frank -- it was an honor to know you. Your life, your service to our country, and your gentle spirit touched my heart. Shine your bright light up there, and know you are missed.

I loved your dad , and the whole family

My deepest sympathy to David and Patty and family. Frank was a very sweet man who always had a big smile for everyone. He will be sadly missed by all.

Condolences to his family. Frank was a wonderful guy; always happy, jokester and kind. He will always be missed also at our boat races. I will miss his smiling face.

Our deepest sympathies to Dave and his family and siblings.

Frank was such a nice man. Liked by All. R.I.P. Frank

Our prayers and condolences to cousin Franks family. Dance king at the family Christmas reunions. Always smiling and willing to help anywhere anytime. Will be missed ❤

Frank was such a kind soul. We miss him dearly already at the VA. Thinking of you all.
