Papa,
You will be missed greatly. I have many regrets for never saying the things I wanted to say. Even though you were just my grandfather to an outsider, you were so much more than that to me. You were my father. You watched out for me, tolerated me, played with me and taught me so much about life. I love you always.

“I’m Free”
Don’t be sad because I’m gone,
Smile because I am free.
Free from shaking, and free from pain
Sitting still, once again I am Me!
What a life I lead, and what a family I’ve bread,
Please don’t be sad for me.
I can run in heaven, and fly in the clouds
Or spend a day lying in the grass,
White water rafting, or catching some fish,
Making my greatest memories last.
Remember Me for who I was,
So Brave, so Strong, and So Proud.
Proud of my life and what I accomplished,
I’ll be here. Comfortable in the clouds.
Please know that I am happy now,
I’m not alone here, I am with my family,
I love you all so very much,
Thank you for staying beside me.
“I want to wish you good luck in your life, and in all of your endeavors. Make sure that you always do everything that you possibly can. Promise me that you will never pass up opportunities, and that you will live your life.”- Frank Graff

Irene,
I want to say thank you for the wonderful care you gave to my brother. I know my Mom and Dad would be proud of you. Frank was the best. I miss him already. I know he is fishing for the big one with Poppy.

I really enjoyed Frank great sense of humor while growing up next door to the Graff family. I enjoyed having him as a football coach at St. Geralds and as a good friend thru the years. He will be sorely missed. My deepest regrests to Mrs. Graff, Karen, Julie, Jeanie, Kim and Wendy. I only wish I was able to be there to give my condolences.

My deepest sympathy on the loss of your father/husband. I know he will be missed. But more importantly, he will be remembered with love. My own memories bring a smile to my face, even through the tears. And I will always cherish the nickname that he gave me.... With love, Michele "Eaglebeak" (Harker). I am so sorry I couldn't be with you tonight.

Papa,
You were my friend, and you are the greatest man that I have ever known. I love you so much, and everything is going to be ok now. You are free from your body, and free from pain. I'll keep you close to my heart for the rest of my life. Your my papa. Always and forever. Thankyou for being such a great part of my life.
