I always enjoyed my trips to Wingert-Jones and Frank was always there to help a newby select great literature. It was also an honor to play for a season in the OP Community Band. We will miss him dearly.

He was so well loved by everyone in the band at Chillicothe High School during the 60's. We were all devastated when he left for Kansas City. Remembered fondly.
