As you can recall, you were my wonderful ward secretary. Alice Small worked with us also. I just retired from the FDA after 18 years of service.

Some of the greatest childhood memories for my three sisters and I include fun-filled summer vacations with Uncle Frank and his family in Hilton Head. On the drive down from DC to Hilton Head, Uncle Frank would make a pit stop in North Carolina and insist we join him and his family on his well-earned summer vacations. It had been several years since we last saw Uncle Frank in person, but he perennially remained in our thoughts, prayers, and conversations, conversations that centered around how hard-working he was, and how inspirational and generous he was to us all. Uncle Frank was close to perfect. We are going to dearly miss Uncle Frank, the best uncle four Carolina kids could have. Requiescat in pace Uncle Frank.
