Not sure what to say?

Dear Kiki,
We were so very shocked and sad to suddenly learn of Frank's illness and subsequent death. It was a delight to have met both of you in China. We wish we could have seen more of you in Atlanta. but were happy to have stayed in touch all these years. Barbara sends her condolences along with ours.
Fondly Thelma and Frank

I grew up around the corner from the Wilsons in Castlewood Estates and played touch football with Frank III in their front yard on many Saturday afternoons. I am here today because Dr. Wilson removed a malignant melanoma from my right arm in 1966, when I was a teenager. He had a wonderful demeanor, always put his patients at ease and had a great sense of humor. I extend my condolances to the entire family.

I was truly saddened to hear Dr. Wilson had passed away. He operated on me in March 2000 for breast cancer - the operation was a complete success - I am lucky, thanks to him. Before, after surgery, and during recovery, he was always straightforward, easy to talk to, and he maintained a jovial attitude the whole time. I knew exactly what to expect and I appreciated his honesty. The world was a better place due to his presence. I do remember that he and his wife were going on a trip to China...

Our family was very saddened to learn of Dr. Wilson's death. Approximately 7 years ago, my husband became ill and we were extremely stressed as we were sent from one doctor to another. My brother Ron Byrd, spoke with you at Delta about our situation and Dr. Wilson graciously agreed to see my husband. We are convinced that he saved his life. It was reassuring to find a physician that truly cared about the patient and patient's family. We will always be grateful for you taking time to...

Dr. Wilson was a true southern gentleman in every sense of the word, and an excellent doctor to my husband and my aunt. My deepest sympathy to his family.

I had the honor and privilege to work with such a talented and dedicated surgeon as Dr. Wilson always was. He was a such a joy to work with. He has left a great legacy for others to follow.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and his entire family, especially at this difficult time.

Dear Kiki...
Sandra and I know just how close you and Frank were as best friends and soul mates. We knew it from the moment we saw you two together, because our relationship is very much the same way. I can't imagine being without my soul mate, so I know your pain is great. Remember all the great moments you both had together, and your full and wonderful life of adventure. The number of couples who share together what you and Frank shared is small in comparison to the many who never...

The Lanning family would like to express their deepest sympathy at your loss. We thought very highly of Dr. Wilson. He helped us through some very trying and difficult illnesses.

Frank was a dear friend and colleague whom I admired and respected to the utmost. Kiki, we share your great loss.
