Dorothy "Dee" Frank

What a delight she was! I worked with her on several screen printed projects beginning back in the eighties. She always had a smile and had a wonderful sense of humor. She was one of those individuals that you never forget.

I first met Dee in the early 80's when Tom Allen took some of us to the coast to paint when his painting group from Portland was to be painting there. I went up to Dee and said, "Your DEE FRANK" (she said she became puffed up as I must be talking about her paintings, and said, "Yes"). I said, "You are David Frank's Mother!" My son Steve ran for West Albany and of course knew of the outstanding runner, David Frank. I was active in WSO, on the board, etc. when Dee was active there. I went on 2...

I met Dee when our sons were running track and cross country in middle school and then high school. What a great companion to share excitement with as our boys competed in their events. Such a sweet and engaging personality and I have often remembered her through the years since then with fond memories of our time together. What a blessing she was to so many people. She has left me with some great memories.

I was fortunate enough to know Dee, first as Barb's mom, and then when I did some work at Paul Giesy. It was always so fun to talk with Dee, and I look back fondly on our lively conversations. And, judging from the wonderful person Barb is, she must have been one heck of a mother. My condolences to her family and friends.

We got to know Dee while sitting in the stands watching our sons run cross country in high school. She was an exceptional person and very interesting to be around. Every year she sent us a Holiday greeting with one of her works of art on it. We will miss her and her notes. Our sympathies to Dave, Barb and Ed. Stan and Beth Jasperson

I worked with Dee through the travel industry for a number of years, and was able to take a trip to Thun, Switzerland with her one year. She knew so much about travel and the European train system, that I would ask her questions and get recommendations. She was always fun to talk with and always willing to share her time and knowledge.

It was 60 years ago that Dee and I lived at the Martha Washington and worked at the Medical Shool. We have stayed in touch all those years (60) I have many memories of my adventures with Dee. I had a great time in three of her tours as a non artist,.

I traveled to Switzerland with Dee and mr mother, Connie Williams. Mom and Dee were great friends and I believe they are having cookies and tea once again. Mom will welcome Dee with open arms. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss.
