Frank celebrated his 86th birthday on March 30th. Frank, at a very young age, learned from his father and mother to love, care and respect others. To do your best and to be a leader. And that he did throughout his life. A love of life, seeing joy in the simple things, a wonderful sense of humor, and a positive approach was his way. Frank had a strong faith in God and showed that faith in a humble and quiet manner. Frank touched our hearts and we feel forever blessed. Just as you touched his life, he felt forever blessed to have known you. Frank is now surrounded by God’s protective arms. Thank You for being a part of his life. He was one of the “good ones” and what an impact he made on so many. Well done! His legacy will live on through his family members.
