 If you knew Joseph Frank, he never met a stranger. Joe was full of life and always made people laugh. He was known as "The California Kid," better known as "Joe Fly." This was how he introduced himself with a smile. He was such a good-hearted person; he would if he could help you. Joe was the embodiment of  “My Brother's Keeper.” Joe was also a heart transplant recipient. He lived his life to the fullest. Joe's passion was rodeoing and cooking, and he was an avid Dallas Cowboys fan. He loved his friends and family dearly. 

Joe's earthly presence will be missed forever.
