Even though we lived so far apart We always kept in touch. Always knew about each others children. We knew how much that Frank loved his animals. On several occassions we did get to talk to him about them. We know his struggle was great with diabetes. We know he is with his grandparents in a peaceful place. God bless you Frank.
