We are so saddened to hear about Frank's passing. We really enjoyed him and his help on my dad's farm. Thinking of you all. May God bless you as you go through this difficult time.

I am saddened to hear about Franks passing, I appreciated his care and concern for me and my family growing up as well as his knowledge about the good ole days. I would have loved to attend and pay my respects, but just found out now about it. Condolences to the family.

Dad,
I hope I can be half the man and father you were. You lived life your way. You will be loved and missed forever. I miss you dearly. You always had a smile on your face and a joke to tell. You made the world a better place with you in it. Until we meet again.
Love your son.
