Estelle,
Condolences to you and the family on the loss of an incredible man. Frank was a unique and very special person. I so enjoyed working with him at EPA when he was Gene Lucero´s deputy. I fondly remember running a 10k with him in DC in the 80s. He was incredibly slow but what he lacked in speed he more than made up for with his very quick and incredibly dry wit!!! I wish him well on his journey and am glad he is not in pain. I don´t believe in the afterlife but in the event I am wrong I look forward to seeing him again.
My best,
Larry Weiner
