Not sure what to say?

Who doesn't miss Frank! He would groan at the notice for Francis.

I think of Frank and his great laugh often. Frank was a real Mensch.

Janet and family,
I want to thank you for all the love and care that I was welcomed with in your home. Frank was a great man and I know that he will be deeply missed. I am sorry to see such a wonderful man leave so soon. I wish you and the family the best. My sincere condolences.

It always comes, but always too soon.
He lived his life; death always wins.
Is there really no more to Share:
the lifted glass; children's silliness; the soft sunset light; the smell of new growth?
No longer the extended hand of greeting, the heartfelt laugh at a
Joke.
Has it really happened? Truly final?

I was a friend of Frank's at Liberty High School. I think the last time I saw him was around 1967 or so. I was very sad to hear of his passing. I am sure he will be greatly missed. My condolences.

Janet and family,
Words can't express how sorry I am with the loss of Frank. He was a very special man whom I had complete love and respect for. Joshua had a special bond with his Grandad I know he will never forget. My familys thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Love, Shelley

I am sorry to see the passing of Frank. He and I were good friends all thru High school and in later life. I remember one year he met me in Las Vegas and we did the show and bars and one time we were playing blackjack and losing badly and he makes the statement " I don't under stand, here I am with a doctorate in Math and these dealers can count to 21 faster than I can" to which I replied "yes but that all they do" Frank will be missed greatly. All my prayers to you and your family....

Janet

I am sorry to hear of Frank's death. I knew from the brief times we met that he was a very special man. I will always remember him for his conviction and compassion.
