Frank was the kind of guy who always exuded confidence. When running the Cooper River Bridge Run or investigating crime for the Solicitor's office, he always inspired people to do their best in every facet of life. In the 1980s, I accompanied Frank and Bob Lecroy, along with Assistant Solicitor Steve Schmutz, on a trip to Washington, DC, to the FBI headquarters for a criminal case. Before our return flight, we visited the Vietnam War Memorial. The three were war veterans, and I was deeply touched by the genuine emotions that they all displayed. My wife Mickey and I pray to have God bless Frank and his family.

I covered a lot of news with Frank O. We were competitors in print and broadcast, but colleagues as fellow journalists trying to provide fact-based and objective reporting. He was be if the last who was at home on the anchor desk as in the field.
The world sorely needs his level of journalism.
Another friend gone, another one of the good guys... RIP

I remember meeting Frank sometime in the early '80s.
He came to my house and interviewed my father who at the time was a detective with the Charleston Police Department. And he discussed about the ballistics of certain firearms in the patterns. Very nice man very polite. Prayers and peace for your loved ones Godspeed
