Kathryn and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Franklin. He was a wonderful man. I remember when Franklin helped me when Gary passed away. I have always appreciated that. You will have many tough days and years ahead, but trust in the Lord to give you the comfort that you will need.

Uncle Frank was the rock of our family and will be greatly missed. His legacy left to us is the love he had for God, family, church family, community and really everyone he came in contact with. I'm sure there's a wonderful celebration going on in Heaven! Aunt Katheryn, Greg, Jim, grandchildren: I know you'll have difficult days ahead, but remember Uncle Frank's strength and faith and that will see you through. I love you,
