Frank Edmund McGrath

My first job outside the home was working as Mr. McGrath's secretary at the Capper Foundation from 1981-1987. He was the most gracious, professional, yet kind-hearted and fun-loving boss a young woman could have had. I treasure those years. Everyone who worked for Mr. McGrath had great respect and love for him. He was truly one of a kind. He could put you at ease and make you feel like you could accomplish anything. The children all loved him, and showed it by stopping by his office...

Randy, My condolences on the loss of your father. He did a lot for the Capper Foundation and Topeka Tennis. I won't be able to attend services Thursday but you'll be in my prayers.

To Frank's family: I knew Frank as he lived on the same hall as my mother at Pioneer Ridge the past 18 months or so. Although I met him very late in his life, I knew he was special. He always spoke to me and mother's other family members and especially adored my grandniece, Lily. Lily is 2 1/2 years and learned to high-five Frank and always went looking for him. He was delighted with her and they had many special moments together. He obviously had a heart for children and you who knew...

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Rolly,
Our thoughts with you and your family.
