Francis Edwin Bell

I'm proud and honored to call Frank my friend. I didn't know a whole lot about him, except for seeing him and Peggy at church for many years. (I'm in the music ministry) A kind and gentle man, he always made time to come over to me shake my hand and we would just talk for a few minutes every week. Frank and Peggy asked me to join them after a mass to celebrate the renewal of their wedding vows. Again , honored to be asked to celebrate with them. I'll never forget the man's kindness. My love and prayers to Peggy. Amen

Frank was one of a kind. What a sense of humor. We will always be grateful for Frank and Peggy making us so welcome in FireRock 25 years ago. Cedric and Mary Theel

Frank, we will surely miss you . You were one amazing kind person. We will miss you and your wonderful kind heart. We will definitely keep in touch with your lovely wife Peggy that we adore. Love Esther.

Frank was larger than life and one of the greatest friends anyone could ever have! When Esther and I moved to Fountain Hills in 2007, we knew no one. We immediately joined Firerock CC and Frank and Peggy immediately welcomed us with open arms. We miss you BIG GUY!!!

What a great friend Frank and Peggy
have been to Rosann and me. We have
had so many good memories of the times we have spent with them, including the frequent trips we did together, the golfing, dinners and even
breakfasts we shared after church services.
Rosann and I have always marveled at what Frank and Peggy we're able to
accomplish in life, including raising three very successful sons, despite overcoming Frank's early on problems with addiction.

So sad for his sudden departure but he is with God now. I always admired how great he was as a father and husband. My favorite memory was when we were golfing before the wedding of Peter and Mari and his golf shot somehow managed to find my foot instep on the fly, very painful, but good for a lifetime of laughs. RIP

Dear Frank was truly a blessing and joy to have as a friend,it´s heartbreaking to believe that I won´t see that wonderful,happy warm kind gentleman again with a big heart and big smile. For all the Bells you now have your own ANGEL For Peggy l am inadequate to express my sorrow and grief for you.May the Lord bless you and carry you through this difficult time ,My love and prayers are with you and I am so happy and grateful to have known such a extraordinary gentleman,Love Patty Melim
