I always enjoyed visits from Frank at my resturant in Greenville. He was always a joy to serve and a nice respectful man. I considered him a friend and I will miss him alot.
I pray that anyone who reads thia knows Jesus Christ as their personal savior. We cannot make it into Heaven by works, only by knowing we will never be good enough so we needed our Lord to send is a Savior to take the wrath of all of our sins.
We are saved only by knowing Christ and believing that he paid the payment that we could never afford. We live because He lives.

God bless you all.

Til we meet again in Heaven, Frank, I will rejoice in knowing you are there with no pain or suffering.

I had the good fortune of working with Frank when he was considering moving from California. He visited the area for three years looking at homes so we became good friends and went to lunch several times. He always drove because he wanted to show me some feature on his new BMW. He loved to drive! I was able to introduce him to several sources to present his program about the almost extinct wolf population. He especially loved the Greenville Zoo and the presentations he did there. RIP Frank, your friend Joy
