Dear Nancy. Oh, what a shock! When I saw him last winter, he told me he was retiring and planning to enjoy life more. So sad.
We have known him for 46 years and loved his wry sense of humor.
We are so sorry.

Nancy,
Frank was a friend through our Northern Winnebago County Kiwanis Club. Actually, Frank introduced us to the club many years ago.
You are in our thoughts and prayers during this time of loss and healing.
