I am very sorry to hear of Frank´s passing. I will always watch March Madness and remember Frank with fond memories of The Bracketville Morning Telegraph! Reading these notes was as much fun as watching the games! His creativity and humor was pure joy. I send prayers and good thoughts for a good man. God bless.
