Dear Aunt Irene, Betty, Fran, John, Bob, spouses, grand kids , great grand kids and all the family, to many to list. I wish I spent more time with him, but was honored every time I did. Especially at his 90th birthday party at Betty and Wayne's. Did anyone else see his Angelic glow ? I sure did, and it was amazing! Not only was I privileged to call him Uncle Frank! but also Captain Frank! He organized the men's retreat each year for both family members and friends at San Alfonso retreat house, where God and Sea come together. He loved it there and we loved him. He gave us more credibility than we deserve and his presence will be missed. When we had free time after Mass or Conferences we could always count on Frank seeking out meaningful conversation that made us think. He was a true mentor by showing us how to listen, be loyal, stand up for what you believe but, never dis-respect the opponent, never ! and Humility ! I never heard him boast about his accomplishments and he had many. He loved to walk and talk and I didn't mind listening to every word. I will miss you Uncle Frank, a gentleman and a scholar, A great Human Being.

Rest in Peace Uncle Frank
Respectfully yours

I will miss your witty humor and straight-talk advice, your easy smile and the "unending love" you showed for your "Sweetheart".
You will be greatly missed by many for a very long time.
