Not sure what to say?

Susan, I had been thinking about you just day's before reading in the paper of your loss.. I was unhappy with the fact I did not get to be there to see you in person. You was still Susan Saeler when we worked together but you and Frank were an item and he was the fellow you was planning to marry. I just wanted to say I am thinking about you still and if ever you pass close to my home I would love you to stop and visit. God Bless you in this trying time and always

I was a frend during high school and after till I married and moved fron Clarksburg. Frank drove me to pick up my new car in 1970 in his new car. We will miss Frank.

I often tell of the time Frank told me he moved his SS396 to the garage below his house and that night he couldn't sleep not knowing his beloved Chevelle was not safe and secure under his bedroom.

Frank was the only person more passionate about his Chevrolet than I am with mine. I videotaped him and his SS396 when I visited from South Carolina last June. He was the kindest person I've known! He will never be forgotten. Only good thoughts of him!

R.I.P.Frank, You always were a good friend to me.I'll miss our times together at car shows and times we had.I pray that your at peace now.I am so sorry for you Susan. I know you and Frank were close and loved one another.

Dear Susie,

Love always! Your cousin Janice and Tom Grove
