Joanne & family- My deepest sympathiies to all of you; family and friends. Frank was one of those truly special people you meet in life who loved his wife and family first; all else was secondary. Sending his kids to college and continuing to be involved in Carthage held such priority. This what I remember most and what he taught me in our interactions. My prayers are with you.

Joanne, Julie and Nick, Frank Jr, and Michelle. We are so sorry for your loss and we are keeping you in our prayers.
Now is a time of grief for all at Elegant Packaging as well. We loved Frank and worked with him for many years. He was a member of our "family" and he will be missed by all here.

Keep the faith and know that he is resting in the LORD's kingdom keeping an eye on us from the heavens.
