Dear Frank,
I am so sorry to hear about Ann. Lost touch over the years, but saw you a few times awhile back, I will never forget how sweet you two were with me and always asked about my kids. You both have a heart of gold and I will never forget how much you two cared about me.

Love, hugs and caring thoughts,
