Franklin W. Rau

Frank I miss you now, but I will see you again. You were a very good brother. You made your mark on my life in many ways. You taught me much and loved me much and I will always cherish the sweet way you cared for me whenever we were together and even when we were apart. Thank you for the love I have in my heart because of you. Love Gretchen

I still feel his gentle presence, his spirit with us. I know he was very much loved. He knows it, too. Blessings and love to the whole family.

Frank- my gentle brother- I miss your sweet smile. I know you are in heaven with God's loving arms wrapped around you. Love, Allison

Franklin Rau had many qualities that were hidden from public view. He was a Patriot -- having served his country in the Army. He loved Classical Music. He could play a mean game of Chess. He had many qualities of life that he made his Philosophy-- he was morally straight and all-in-all, a Gentleman.

You're forever in my heart, Frank. Love, Mom

Franklin was the most beautiful man I've ever ever met. We were engaged and to be married in the future. I loved him so much and I always will love him. He is at peace with God now and all the colon cancer is gone!!
Love and miss you sweetheart!

Please accept our heartfelt condolences at Frank's passing. He will be both a part of our memory and prayers. We wish your family the strength and faith of knowing that he has entered a better and painless eternal life of joy.
