Frank was one of the best: He had a strong work ethic, intelligent, conscientious, and had a great attitude. His broad grin (which he always kept locked-and-loaded) will be one of my lasting memories of him. He was always ready with a kind word, or a snide remark to lighten the mood just when you needed it. Although we worked together for many years, I am proud to call him my friend. He will be sorely missed.

Lorna, Nate & family, my heart and prayers are with you in this most difficult time. I so enjoyed Frank and his wit. He was a fun and loving man to all. But I especially appreciate what a Great, grandpa he was to Nate and Sierra's children and my grandchildren Aislynn, Claire, and Desa he was. I know the will sincerely miss their "Grandpa Frank".
With much love,
