Dear Russell, Tom, Andrew, and & Cathy - I started working for your dad in the early years of Scott and Douglass on the 15th Floor of the City Bank Building when I was going to UT. As you know, your dad was phenomenal in so many ways. I treasure the 5 years that I worked for the firm - they are happy memories for me. Your dad reserves a special place in my heart for the opportunities he afforded me. All of you have my deepest sympathy for your loss.

Andrew and the Douglass Family, My prayers are with each of you during this difficult time. God bless and keep you.

Andrew and the Douglass family,

I am deeply saddened to learn of Frank's passing. Although Texas and lawyering are now firmly in my rear view mirror, I will always be grateful to Frank and everyone at SD&M for the opportunities that have enabled me to do things I really wanted to do with my life.

My prayers are with you.

Cathy, Andrew, Tom and Russell,

Your Dad’s generosity made such an impact on the community and the youth in Westlake!! From his loyal and enthusiastic support of all of us at sporting events, contributions to our sports teams, his famous Longhorn “Eyes of Texas” horn on the van, humor and kindness – he is truly a Westlake treasure and remembered warmly. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this time.

Russ, Tom, Andrew and Cathy: My thoughts and prayers are with each of you and your families during this difficult time.

To Andrew, Sheri, and the Douglass family I wish to express my sympathy and condolences to you all.
