I am a member of OES, Beaver Valley Chapter, and I spoke with Frank a few times after our meetings. He was a very, very nice man and his wife and family have a LOT to be proud of in this man. To Frank's family, God bless you and keep you in his loving care. I also belong to St. Francis and will keep Frank and your family in my prayers during the Saturday night mass.

Dear Marlene, Angel, Kelley and family members,

Frank was my big brother, and always had something good to say to bring a smile to your face, or a good laugh. I will miss him greatly after the last several years of being back home. After years of being away from home, Frank always welcomed a time of "catching up". I will always remember our conversations, and thank him for his concerns.

I love you all, my prayers are with you.

LOVE, Clare

Dear Marlene & Family,

We are truly sorry for the loss of Uncle Frank.

Uncle frank was a good man, and I always looked forward to being around him. I always learned something new everytime I spoke with him, and appreciated the way he always seemed to remember the special days and made sure he either called or sent a card recognizing the day.

I will miss him, and the relationship we once had.

Our thoughts and prayers are with him, and for your family.

Please do not hesitate to call if you need anything!

Love always!

Jim, Sheila & Maura
