Not sure what to say?

Frank was an old friend of my wife Ann and I from Rutherford days. We have many fond memories of him from that era. Somehow we lost track of him after the Marines and our letters to Frank and Nora at a return address of "3-mile Dawson Trail(?)" came back undelivered. Reading his biography toniight assures us that this was the same Frank we knew and wish we could have found sooner. Some day perhaps we could meet the family and fill them in on the friend we knew and loved.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Frank and I spent many happy hours together in high school. We were both very active in the youth group at the Presbyterian Church in Rutherford. Frank invited me to attend a Broadway performance in New York of West Side Story. We had a wonderful time.

My deepest sympathy to Frank's family. Frank and were classmates at Rutherford High School and we both attended the Presbyterian Church. May God ease your grief.

Dear Nora and Louise, So very sorry to learn that Frank was "gathered." I have not seen him for so many years, but I certainly haven't forgotten the fun he was in high school. You must have had a rich life together and I am grateful for that blessing to him. He wrote in my yearbook: "Metz - a mounty always gets his man" signed his name, drew a mustache and goatee! (I was chasing a friend of his, was his reference.) He was joy to us in the l950s and it is my faith that he is still joy...

I just heard of Frank's passing and wanted to convey my deepest sympathy to his family. Frank and I were friends in Rutherford High School, and in fact are pictured in our yearbook as a "Senior Couple". I lost track of Frank after high school, and didn't know that he'd settled in Alaska. All good wishes to his wife and daughter. Lynn (Meister) Peterson

Dear Family -
Frank and I were friends many years ago in New Jersey. My deepest condolences at your loss.
Best regards, John Cook

My sincerest condolences. I knew Frank from my days at Lincoln School (ages 5-8) in Rutherford, NJ. Although we've lost touch through the years I clearly remember the brief time we spent together.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Rutherford High School Class of 1958.

Nora
All of us connected with Bingle Camp were saddened when we read of Franks sudden passing. We remember with gratitude the generous support you and Frank have given for the camp. Our love and prayers go out for you your family as you walk walk ahead without Franks love and presence.
