I went through Army basic training with Frank at Ft. Polk LA in 1967.
He was my best friend during those 8 weeks. When we were granted a weekend leave we took a bus to Alexandria, LA. We stayed at a rundown old hotel, with a rundown old restaurant. My memory is we also had a couple of rundown old steaks. We didn´t care! Nobody was telling us what to do and it was air conditioned!
As these things go, we were always going to get together when we returned home. We never did.
Whenever I think of my time at Ft.Polk I remember Frank and what a good friend he was. Although our time together was brief I think I knew his character. I´m sure he was an even better husband, father and grandfather. For that you are truly blessed.
You have my deepest sympathy.
