Dear Todd and Family: I was saddened to hear the news from Betty about your Dad. I do know he was a wonderful man and you will have many great memories that you shared together. You have our deepest sympathy and are in our thoughts and prayers.

My sincere sympathy and prayers to the Muenz family. I knew Fran from all of his work and dedication to Most Holy Name and Mt. Troy bingo's. He was a dedicated, well loved man. Fran never told us "no" and could always be counted on. He was a great man, and a loss to our community. Prayers and well wishes to your family.

I join all of you in thoughts, prayers, sympathy and memories as you celebrate the life of this wonderful man whom I know as "Uncle Fran." The one comfort in grief is knowing that in that place where we will all meet again, there must surely be great joy as all those who have gone before welcome him home again...Peace and blessings to all of you. Much love to everyone.

I was luck to have worked with Fran for over 20 years at Pitt Chemical. He was one of the first sale reps to take the time and "train" the new girl all those years ago. He was always there when you needed that stable person to talk to. When he lost Mercedes I know it was a terrible blow, but he was lucky to find Betty. They were just great together. Fran helped me thru sometimes that were bad, but he always managed to bring a smile to my face. I will miss his cheerful face sitting across from my desk all those years ago. He will be missed.
