A Dolphin, a Starfish, a Shark
Though Gary J. Frank programmed computers for a living, he was not the nerdy type. He had a dolphin and a starfish tattooed on his left shoulder because he loved to hang out at the Jersey Shore. And he knew his way around smoke-filled pool halls, taking down more than a few seasoned sharks over the past decade. In amateur tournaments from Baltimore to Las Vegas, Mr. Frank, 35, racked up trophies with his pool-stick-wielding teammates. His sister, Laurie Vigeant, said that he would concentrate so hard that he rarely talked under pressure. "It's like watching the professionals," said Ms. Vigeant, who sometimes played alongside him. But even champion pool players take time out. A divorced father, he always devoted every other weekend to his 12-year-old daughter, Jessica. This would have been their weekend.

Not sure what to say?

Gary I can´t believe another year has passed. It´s unbelievable sad that we have to remember this date each year. But though you only worked at Pepsi for a short amount of time we had some fun times. Even though as time passed, we didn´t see one another as much as we probably would have liked but we knew that´s how life goes as we got older. May God Bless You Gary and Your Family. Your friend, Keith M

Another year Gary that you are gone. I will always remember you as a co-worker at Abel/Noser Corp. before you left. Remembering when you brought your Mom and I met her. Rest in Peace Gary in the arms of G-d. Praying you will be found one day.

Gary, I never forget to put in a memorial on this day September 11, every year. Could not find your memorial today so I found this and again will never forget you my co-worker at Abel Noser. May you still find peace in the hands of our Lord. May your memorial be a blessing.

Hello Gary, I wish I had the chance to meet to meet you, I was told alot about you from your beautiful family. I live here in Florida with Shaina together in our home just 2 minutes from them and always go to grandpa's get togethers, grandpa as in your Dad Stanley, I love and protect them with all my heart. Your family has become my family and I will always keep them safe...

Gary I did not write to you on the exact day, does not mean I wasn’t thinking of you. Many days leading up to the day I watched a lot of related documentaries about the day. I was so sad and crying really hard. I didn’t want to remember you that way. I wanted to take the day and remember your smile and how kind and patient of a person you were to me when we were kids. How I admired you. We didn’t have a lot of boy cousins and for that matter I think your one of two for me. So that in itself...

I didn't know Gary but I was at the memorial in 2013 on his birthday and took a picture of his name with the rose they had placed there. Each year since then I share the picture with my high school students and read the A Dolphin, A Starfish, A Shark to them. He is remembered.

Gary I think of you often and I also think of your Mother. I pray that you are resting in the hands of G-d. I pray your Mom finds some peace knowing you are in heaven watching down on everyone.

Remembering you on this extremely sad day of your passing 22 years ago today. As each year passes I´ll never forget time we met and became friends at work. I´ll always remember you and good times we had. May you rest in eternal peace. May your family find peace knowing what a great person that you are . God Bless Gary
