Faye and I are so sad at Frank's passing. He was such a great guy. Frank's wisdom and counsel were of huge relief to me on two very stressful occasions. He made the world a better place.

We were so saddened to learn of Bill's passing. I will remember fondly the time spent with Bill and Gloria at their home when they so graciously hosted us on several trips, visiting with them on a trip to New York, and at our wedding. Gloria, our thoughts and prayers are with you in this difficult time. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.

Love,
Maureen & James

I was shocked to hear that Frank had passed away. Indeed he was a special man and one of my best friends.
Frank and I were law partners for a while and even in all the years afterwards I would seek him out if I needed a no nonsense lawyer's opinion.
This is a better world because Frank was here
God bless you Frank; hope to see you on the other side!
