I was in Frank's Saturday golf group, though only for the last year or so. Pairings were set up so that everyone rotated so as to get to know each other. I was paired with Frank several times and even though the various shots and scores we made were soon forgotten, I will always remember the good vibes that Frank seemed to radiate, especially when I found out he could sing and knew all the words to every song I could manage to coax him to sing.
Before heading out to our golf carts after lunch, he didn't say good bye. He said, with a grin " I'm glad you got to see me again." And we all were. He will be remembered for how he made us feel. He will be missed.

Good ol' Frank was like a grandpa to me. He introduced me to lots of great culture, from The Beatles to Clive Cussler to the game "Civilizations", and opened his home to us Prince grandkids on many occasions. Sometimes I felt like he was the only person of his generation to understand me. I'll miss him.

I can't believe Frank is gone. I just saw him a few weeks ago at an event in The Villages, FL. He looked and acted just fine. I am so sad for the family. What a shock. This reminds me that we all must be ready all the time. I will say my rosary in church tomorrow for the family left behind. Carol Nichols (The Villages, FL)

Frank's life deserves celebration! He did it all! Served our country during dark times, engaged his amazing mind to provide his fellow citizens with high quality products, was a father to outstanding children, eased his "Pop" into the hereafter, gave my mom 14 years of happiness, and damn, he was my friend! I love you Frank and I'll miss you! You'll never be gone as long as I'm alive and the others who love you! See ya! Not too soon I hope!

Your quick intellect, dry wit and easy smile will be missed by everyone who knew you!

Peaceful journey, my friend
