Not sure what to say?

It was an honor to work with Frank over a dozen plus years before my retirement from the working world. Frank was extremely generous with his patience, kindness & respect, I remember well. I was deeply saddened to read about his passing. To Frank's family, friends & colleagues please accept my sincere condolences. Prayers. Claudia K. Tiger

He was a good friend for 65 years. We grew up together and grew old together. We experienced a lot of good times including family celebrations and get togethers with friends. I always considered Frank a person of the highest quality. May he Rest In Peace for a life well lived.
All the best to the Reilly family, sorry for this loss, and stay well.

With Sympathy, Frank Spendlove

I once remember Frank mowing his lawn while it was still wet from rain but before even more rain which I did not fully understand at the time, but realizing as an adult how difficult that was to do. I had to do the same thing once to beat oncoming rain, and thought of him that day and on many days since when the grass was wet but needed mowing.

Abundant condolences to Brian, your mom Cathy, your siblings and all the family. Your dad was a quick-wit whenever we met during teen-schlepping encounters involving the OKS-Delby gang and a genuinely good, warm soul. Our daughter is convinced his Rec letter got her into law school. Treasure the memories. And have faith: Life unto life.

Frank was a great man, a good friend and will be truly missed.
I have wonderful memories of all the great and fun times our two families had in Mendham many years ago. Our prayers and thoughts are with you All.

He was such a kind and fun man, he truly will be so missed , our families had a lot of great times together 30 some years ago
Hugs to all of you
