Frank was, indeed a great guy. When I think of him, I usually am picturing him in the steamy church kitchen, his sleeves rolled up and doing whatever was needed to help. Patty and family, I know you will miss him. Wishing you comfort and peace.

To Vernon and Linda, my homeroom classmates from the PHS Class of '68, please accept my sincere condolences. I was acquainted with Mr. Frank Tiedge only through my brief encounters with him at his automobile dealerships. In each instance I found him to be a fair-minded, pleasant and genuinely likable man. I am sorry for your loss.
