In the 15 years I've known you, you have always been somebody you could talk to and always be there for everyone. I'm most going to miss who I will give my Sun Times to so they can work on the crossword puzzles. Will miss you alot.

Auntie Roie,

Uncle Frank was truly one of a kind. Working with him in records was the best. He had the pictures of co workers children on display and I remember putting mine up there because I was jealous. He left it up there for quite sometime as I remember. I also remember fighting him for pens, he always hid the good ones. I would sneak in the drawer and take them when he would leave. Jay is going to miss the competition of who could eat the most at family parties. We are here for anything you, danielle or sarah needs. We are close and can be at your house in a sec. Love Tina, Jason, Khan and Suzee

I know there are no words of comfort. Every day of knowing Frank was a blessing in all of our lives. He is loved and will be missed, but more importantly, we will remember and celebrate the joy and love he had with his family, friends, coworkers and everyone he knew. Frank laughed and made us laugh, something I will carry on with him in my heart.
