Uncle Frank was an extremely special man. He had very high morals and always stood for his truth. His demeanor was strong and quiet, he was an intense listener. He devoutly loved his family, his family both of origin and his wives, children and grandchildren were very important to him.
I knew him most married to Lucy, his first wife. Their love for each other was insurmountable. I never saw any two people love and care for each other as much as they did.
Although both died many years ago, I miss them and am very happy I have such good memories. I am only sorry that I was unable to honor him during his Mass due to an hospital illness.

Dear Family,

Uncle Frank will be so missed since he was much loved. However, he has left behind a great legacy, his beloved children. Each one is an individual with special unique talents; yet each one share his love for life, his caring for people, and his love for family.

My deepest sympathy.

Love

Carolyn

Dear Judy,

I just want to express my sympathy to you and your family in the passing of your dear dad. I can vividly remember seeing him at a variety of educational meetings over the years. He certainly was one fine person.- Suann Aitchison

As a young child, my memories of Uncle Frank take me to summertime on the Jersey shore: a loving father, husband and friend. As the patriarch of a a large family, he will be missed.
