Dear Jackie,
Dear Jeff,
I can not begin to tell you how much my heart aches for both of you. You have both been in my prayers and will continue to be. Venice will be a lesser place without Frank. Johson's Towing and Hines Auto Body will always be missing a special ingredient. And memories along with his love will have to fill that special spot he shared in your lives.
But know this: his smile and caring ways made this a better place while he was here. He dealt with honesty and integrity. And I for one along with the Pit Stop crew will always remember and miss Frank.
Remember to allow God to carry you in times like this, you're not alone: Footprints.
