Sorry to hear of Frank's passing.

I really got to know Frank when he managed IBM's OPD Customer Engineering Branch in Atlanta and I was on Headquarters Staff. He was always a class act and I truly respected his views as we became good friends. Thanks for all the great memories!

So many people enjoyed interacting with Frank. God will take great care of him.

Frank was a friend and a great OPD Manager. He had a great personality and an infectious laugh. He always had a smile on his face except when he was chewing you out. Frank moved around a lot because he was good at what he did for IBM.

God keep those who pass on in his memory because they are precious to him. Psalms 116 : 15. EJC. GA.

I will always remember Frank as we were both in the same class at Church Hill High School. He was a good student-always had a smile on his face. Our prayers go out for Maude and the rest of his family.
