To all of Frank's family, you have our deepest sympathy. Frank was such an outgoing man with many friends. He was such a beloved character and we all have our own special memories of him. You all should be proud of yourselves for the care you gave him. He was a lucky man to have you. There is a saying that helps me through some tough times and maybe it will give you some peace too. "Don't mourn what is gone, but rejoice that you once had it" so, when you get down, remember the good stuff.
