Brenda and family,
You don't know us, but we are customers of SMI referred by Michael Myers. Whenever I called Frank, he was so helpful and friendly. I didn't know until today that Frank had passed. Rena Myers told me. I am so so sorry!

Dear Frankie,
You are now with so many of your 'brothers'... they don't make them like you guys anymore... hope you all have a grand old reunion together. Deepest sympathy to Brenda, your entire family and everyone who knew you... what enormous pain we all feel.
As with everyone else who was fortunate enough to have known you, thank you for being part of our lives and always making times better.
Forever in our hearts,
