My sincerest condolences to the family. I k
new
Frank from our Red Lion High School days. I always remember Frank as one of the nicest guys I was acquainted with. I seem to remember that Frank went to Williamsport Tech, as I did, after high school. Have not seen him since then but his picture was terrific! As as Navy Vet I would say 'Thanks for your service". I was blessed to know him and may you all be comforted and blessed during this difficult time.
