I had the great pleasure of sharing this World and the acting profession with Frank for many years. A dear friend, golf partner, actor extraordinary, and one hell of a good singer. Many days were spent with Frank. I am so sorry he is gone. There are so many stories where our lives intersected, way too many to mention. Surfice to say, we shared a lot of adventures and events together. My world is a little dimmer with his passing.

I had the pleasure of meeting Frank in Sports Authority here in Vacaville. I was there with my daughters, and from I distance I saw this man who looked like Shawn Brady. I waited a few minutes and finally approached him (nervous) ... wow - what a sweet man. I don't recall the year - but thinking it was shortly after his retirement. He was so kind to talk to this DOOL fan. Those were the days with him on the show, Caroline and the Brady clan. My thoughts and condolences to the family and friends. I feel honored I got to meet him - so humble and kind.

My deepest sympathy to the family. May the God of comfort grant you strength during this difficult time.

We will miss you as Grandpa Shawn Brady on, "Days Of Our Lives." You were indeed a true patriarch to a great Brady family. In closing here is the "Old Irish Blessing:" May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face; the rains fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again. May the Lord hold you in the palm of his hand.
