I have nothing but fond memories of Frank. I was privileged enough to know him for about a decade. He always had a project going and a smile on his face. My condolences to Joyce and family.

I remember you Dad in your later years how I drove down and helped you in the garage and you, Joyce, Patty and I ate at this great restaurant on a dock under a grass like roof. The food was so good, although Patty got kind of sick that night. Patty and I walked along this palm tree lined inlet and saw an eagle like bird dive into the water for food. It was so exciting. You and Joyces florida home was so beautiful. I loved walking Pinto in the morning and it was an experience going to work with Joyce so early in the morning. Our visit was memorable and going to the spong docks on that beautiful day weaving in and out of the stores. I hope, God willing, we can enjoy Paradise together and then you'll know what the real life is about. We'll see. Sleep now.

All the photos of my Dad and friends and family was so nice. I want to thank everyone involved for such a beautiful memorial given for him and for his final resting place in such beautiful surroundings, this beautiful earth given by God. This arrangement wherein we can, view this memorial on line is such a lovely idea especially for those so far away and unable to come to it in person. My thanks to the funeral home for making it available to others.

Was deeply saddened to hear of Frank's passing. The vivid memories I have of him is that he was a very outgoing and vital man. I can still picture him riding the streets with his prized motorcycle. He will be missed. My prayers and thoughts are with you, Joyce, and your family. May God comfort you in this time of sorrow.

Sorry to hear of Frank's passing. I remember him as a very friendly and outgoing man. I came to know him through Joyce, his wife. I used to work for her a long time ago, but we all remained friends after I Ieft. I can still see him riding around town with his beloved motorcycle. He will be missed. May God be with Joyce and their family at this time of sorrow. Love, Gretchen
