Our condolences to Frank's brother and sisters at this time of sorrow. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Frank was a very caring person. He is now "home" with his Creator and together again with Gary, my brother.

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.

God bless you Frank. You and Gary are together again. Thank you for all you had done for me and my family during my dad's last stages of alzheimers. Your compassion and gentle kindness will live on in my heart and my memories forever.

Frank was one of the most loving and caring individuals that I ever met. He had one of the biggest smiles that would bring sunshine to you no matter what burdens you were carrying. He always cared about how YOU were and wanted to be sure that you were right with the world first before he shared his day with you. I know how hard this last year had been for him and for the ones that loved him the most. I hope with all my heart that he and Gary together have found eternal peace. I will always love him and I miss him dearly.

I had the pleasure of working with Frank at SeniorLAW - his great sense of humor, passion for doing the right thing for seniors, and compassion for the group of folks who worked together there, is something that I miss. He has remained a friend since then, and I know in my heart that he is in the right place, in heaven with Gary and our friends and his family who went before him, enjoying a good glass of wine, looking down on us and having a good laugh.
