Elaine,
I just learned about Frank's passing and so sorry to hear. He was a most unique individual that I always thought of very highly. He was a true friend and I always looked forward to reading his emails. He always sent an attachment because something in the attachment jogged his memory of one of our discussions and/or adventures. Please accept my condolence and convey my condolences to Kim and Trey. Harold Chilton
