Marge and I were blessed to know a true gentleman. It was a pleasure to see Frank and Katherine on the dance floor at the many Arab Shrine functions. I always appreciated his recounts of his days in the WWII effort.

A fabulous couple to aspire to be like.

Katherine and Galbraith family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Frank. May God comfort you in this difficult time. Frank made such an impact on me and my career. He was a class act and such a good example of what a real guy should treat the women in his life like! He loved his family, especially Katherine, so deeply and it showed. I will always cherish his visits especially when I got to see he and Katherine dance together. Katherine, I love you guys!
I am so sad I will not be able to make it to the funeral as I will be out of town for the weekend, but I will be thinking about you all.

Frank was a good friend to me at the start of my career when I needed it most. He was a great role model and very much appreciated by all who knew him.
