Frank was an amazing man. I take much pleasure and honor in knowing him for many, many years.
I met Frank about 35 years ago. We worked together in the mortgage industry. Frank excelled in everything he did. He quickly earned his way to being VP of operations of the national mortgage company we worked for. He was a true professional and friend who will never be forgotten.
Our condolences go out to his family and many, many friends.
Rest in heaven sir!!!
