To the Vykopal family,

You are all in my thoughts and prayers at this very difficult time. Frank was a wonderful person who will be greatly missed especially by the boy scouts. The whole family was always very friendly and I can understand why. Always remember the good times that you had with Frank.

Dad, I know that you are now in a better place and that the pain is gone. I am so thankful for that. I also know that you will watch over all of us and we will think of you daily. You led a very fulfilled life and did so many different things that one could just dream of being able to accomplish. I will miss you so very much and will think about you daily until the day we meet again. I will always be Mick to you and will miss hearing you call me that. Love you Dad!
