Frank was a great guy with a wonderful sense of humor. Great racquetball player as well. Smiled at everyone he met and he met a lot of poeple. I was lucky to have known him.

Frank was in my thoughts throughout the years. Frank was my first boss, 32 years ago at Manassas Lumber. If I had a question he wouldn’t give me the answer, but would guide me in the right direction to find the answer on my own. He was my go to guy when I was working on a car and just couldn’t figure something out. He was always someone you could count on to be there if you needed help or just a little push in the right direction. I learned so much from Frank over the many years I know him. I am proud to have known him and to have called him my friend. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

I knew Frank from Manassas Lumber. He was always smiling and willing to help with whatever I needed. He was also a great source of information. I missed having his guidance in the home repair business.
