Not sure what to say?

When I was a child, Mr. Shelton would come thru the neighborhood, for child labor, lol.

He ran the dragstrip and needed help cleaning up afterwards.

Still not sure if the draw was the A&W rootbeer afterwards, or the $1.00 we earned.

Lol, I think it was riding in the back of his truck, with my parents permission.

I always looked forward to seeing Frank on golf league nights or anytime during the weekend. Fun guy to play golf with or just shoot the breeze with. Sorry to see a good guy go, I will miss seeing him around.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

I have been truely blessed to have had the gift of knowing Frank through out my entire life. His willingness to help anyone in need was only exceeded by his ability to do it. To say he was a man to be admired would be a major understandment and clearly seen in the legacy he leaves through his wonderful family and friends.
My family's deepest sympathy and prayers go to the whole family at this time of great loss. My uncle Frank will be dearly missed by everyone who knew him!

I didn't get to know Frank very well but my dad (Darry Burton) always talked very highly of him.

Frank and Judi were wonderful friends of my parents. I grew up knowing how kind and caring he was. I will always have fond memories of him. Our thoughts and prayers go to you and your families in your time of sorrow.

I was a member of Frank's high school graduating class. I also was a member of the 4-H Club that met at Glenwood School. Frank was always kind and I never heard him say a negative thing about anyone.
I know he will be dearly missed by everyone, most of all his family. Rest assured he is in Heaven with those who have gone before.
