I was surprised to discover today of Frank's passing. As a lawn care customer for many years, I'd always enjoyed performing the applications on his and Anna's lawn whenever I was sent into Lemont. I enjoyed the many "hellos" and pleasant conversations with with them as they sat on their patio swing. A truly good couple. My sincerest condolences to Anna, Theresa and his family. With many blessings to you all. Fritz

Frank was my favorite usher at the 7 am mass. He always had a smile on his face and a kind word for everyone. A beautiful life has come to an end, he died as he lived, everyone’s friend. Rest In Peace my friend.

I am so sad to hear of Frank's passing. He was a wonderful friend to me especially when we were living on Eureka. It was truly a joy when I would later run into him in the grocery store or at different events in Lemont. Although we weren't right next door anymore, he will always be my good friend and a wonderful man. My condolences to Anna and to the entire family. Frank will be missed by many of us. Sheila Reiter
