There are so many good memories of our softball team (Fairview House), probably over 35 years ago, when Frank and I played together along with a bunch of other good guys. From that group, the good Lord now has half a team. Rest in peace, Frank, knowing that many of us are thinking of you and your family.

Bert and kids, I am so sorry for your trouble, and pray you all are doing well. I will miss Frank and think of him the rest of my life. I lost my friend and former boss. My heart goes out to all.

My condolences to the Pearn family.
I played softball with Frank back in the 1970s and always enjoyed his company and friendship.
I'm sure his family will hold many memories of Frank in their hearts.

So sorry to hear of Frank's passing. I really enjoyed working and golfing with Frank for many, many years. He'll always be one of the "Myrtle Beach" gang in my book, and he'll be missed by many.
