I was sorry to hear of Frank Danforth´s passing. One of my fondest memories is seeing Frank Danforth in the foyer of our home on Elizabeth Avenue assembling the grandfather clock that my then husband ordered from him for me. I still have that old grandfather clock. It chimes away in my new townhome foyer, reminding me of a wonderful time in my life.

I have a grandfather clock that was made for me by Frank Danforth in 1980. It is one of my most beloved treasures. This is the picture of him and the clock on the day he brought it to our home.
