Caroline and family,

Our family extends our heartfelt sympathy to you. We have you in our prayers. Living so far apart, we were not able to spend much time with Frank, but, the time we did have with him revealed a warm, loving person with a droll sense of humor. We love hearing of Deb's close relationship with her family and enjoy the fact that the Thompson family kept the other members of their community center on their toes playing cards. Frank must have been very proud of Kelly and Sean. They are lucky to have had him in their lives into young adulthood. God bless you and keep you in his care.

Love, Frank, Suzanne, and Sarah
