I am deeply saddened to learn of Frank's passing. He was a wonderful man, who formed a terrific company and mastered the art of being a grand husband, father and grandfather.
There was nary a time that I entered the practice range at Big Spring when I didn't see him there swinging away -- he loved the game and was a regular on the course with members of his family.
Rest in Peace, Frank. You've made a great contribution to our city and have served as a model of gentility.
