Dearest Sherry and Family,
I am heartly sorry to learn of Frank's passing. He was one unique guy with very funny sarcasms that I will never forget. I am sorry I didn't make it to the funeral, although I am sure you understand my position. Please feel free to contact me...you have my number.

Dear Sherry
I grew up with Frank and also went to Judo with him. I have many memories of our days when he lived in Chicago at the Jr. Terrace house.
He was quite a guy and friend to my family. I remembered when I last saw him at my Dads and Moms 50th anniversary and he told my dad how Judo and his and many other instructor teachings, help him in life. It is ironic that this week we will be doing his 1 Year memorial. Well at least he won't be alone and they can again talk Judo.
We will surely miss him.

Dear Sherry,
I am very sad to hear of your loss. Frank and my brother Steve participated in judo together at the Uptown Dojo in Chicago. I also saw him over 10 years ago when he helped me in court over some problems with my husband. He was so smart, professional, and most of all, did not let that judge intimidate him. My prayers are with you....again, I'm so sorry to hear of his passing.

Dear Sherry:
I'm sorry I can't be there Sunday.
Frank was my first friend and great buddy in law school. He was everything I loved about our class -smart, confident, funny, unconven-tional and a great person. We did a lot of kidding around and photocopying of outlines.
I am very happy he did well and that he had such a terrfic family. Although we didn't keep in touch much after law school, I will always remember him and be proud to have known him. I am very sorry for your very sad loss.
Sincerely,
Michael Panter
