Not sure what to say?

To the Riske Family - I can't tell you how sad this news made me. I am thankful for the time I had to get to know him at CCAF, the laugh, the smile and as someone else mentioned - the coffee cup! My prayers and thoughts are with you all.

Dear Kellie, Kaitlyn and Sarah,
Our hearts broke upon word of Frank's death. We still have such wonderful memories of singing at your wedding, of Kaitlyn playing her clarinet in the choir, Frank singing the best way he knew how in the choir, and the smile on his face when Sarah was born. We miss you so much and wish that we could have had more time with all of you. Please call us if you need anything. You will always be in our prayers.
Love to all, Cindy, Jim, Becky, Sean and Joey...

For the Riske Family,

I was Frank's classmate at the Rider's Edge Academy and enjoyed his sense of humor and friendship during the short time we were together as a class. I remember the photos he shared with us of his motorcycle, and how much he was looking forward to riding it before the weather turned colder.

I know the road he is following now will be the best ride anyone can have.

I'm so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are for you and your family.

Scott

To the Riske Family, I am deeply sadden for your loss and the loss to the Air Force. MSgt Riske was a good man and a good NCO. My thoughts and prayers are with your whole family. We all miss you MSgt Riske

Dear Riske family - although Frank was a friend of my brother Brian's, I still remember him oh so much and oh so fondly, as we used to get in all kinds of trouble and have way too much fun while in high school together. I also remember being so amazed at how much he and Gerry reminded me of each other (Carol is my cousin)both in their personalities and how they treated people. Such a loss -my thoughts and prayers are with you all - may you find peace in knowing Gerry, Frank and their father...

Frank was a class-act. He never hesitated to help me with whatever I had going on through the years at CCAF. The guy was just full of life and was a true joy to be around. I am proud to have been associated with Frank and Kelly and he will be thought of often and fondly. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Riske family during this trying time. What a man, What a loss. God Bless, Jason, Rynda and baby Cameron
