"I'm so very sorry for your loss! I remember Frank's jokes and dry since of humor. The most time I spent with him was when Dawn invited me to go to Little America..oh how we laughed and put QT all over ourselves to tan through the back window of the station wagon. My Friend Dawn, words cannot express the sorrow for you at this time, I know all about it unfortunately. I remember God's promise for us all being reunited one day, and that helps soothe my soul. Rest In Heavenly Peace Frank, God Bless!!"
