Not sure what to say?

I had no idea that Frank has passed.Found the oobit accidentally looking for another more recent one.

Frank and I were good friends and shared many similar philosophies.

Hard to believe that I have been gone from Cobb County now for ten (10) years....and I miss seeing old friends and patients.

My belated condolensces to Barbara and family.

So sorry to hear of your loss. May you be comforted by his life and love.

I just learned of Frank's passing, and am so sorry I didn't attend the funeral. I first met Frank in the mid 60s when he visited the Kennesaw home of his UGA classmate (Roger Wilbur). Roger and Frank were both in vet school at UGA. Frank was often a visitor of the Wilbur household. I was close friends with Roger's brother, Danny Wilbur.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Boone family. Dr. Boone was a great man, and a pleasure to work for. He was always very good to me and I'll always be thankful for his kindness.

As a child I spent many fun filled hours with the Boone family. Frank, his sister Frenchie and I grew up together and remained friends well into our adult lives. Frank even served as an usher in my wedding. He will always be remembered as a good friend and true gentleman. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.
