To the family, you have my sincere condolences. When someone falls asleep in death (Ecclesiastes 9: 5,10) the memories we have of them become our most precious treasure. May those memories comfort you as well as Gods promise at John 6:40.

My deepest sympathy

I performed TV repair work for Frank when he had Mid-City appliance, and also knew him when he help form the Niskayuna Elks club. He was a great person to be friends with.
