When my wife told Coach she was planning a 40th surprise birthday party for me (hadn’t seen him in 20+ yrs.) he graciously not only remembered me but gave her one of my old game jerseys.. which my son proudly wore at the party.
Hope that shows what a fine man he was.

The IDC golf league was deeply saddened hearing that Frank had passed away. Our thoughts and prayers to his family. He was a great guy and we loved seeing him each week, hearing a few jokes, and play a few holes with him a few times. He joined us for a dinner last fall, and even though it took a few tries to set up a date and time, I'm so thankful we did. Absolutely loved hearing him talk about his experiences, and was amazed how sharp he was with his memory of everything from way back in his past. Rest in Peace Coach!

Frank was an outstanding human being, a lovely man, and a true gentleman. Always quick with a joke and a warm hello he always brightened my day. He will be dearly missed by all of us in the IDC golf league. Rest in peace my friend... See you on the back nine...
