I really liked Frank. I knew him in his humor and our role playing Mafia-like scenes and then laughing alot about our silliness. I also knew something of his sufferings and humble regrets. He did well in trying to stay close to Christ. I admire his generosity to the poor here in Kenya and also the poor of Detroit. May he bask in the eternal mercy and warm welcome of the risen Jesus. I will be offering a mass for Frank on May 25.
