Dear Sharon, Nicole and Alec, it is with a heavy heart that I send my deepest sympathy on the passing of your beloved husband and father. Frank was always the kindest man and I still carry the memories of our 2000 Ocean Princess Cruise close to heart. And it was always a pleasure seeing and talking with him at our annual St. Elijah choir Bowling Balls in recent years. God bless you all. Rest in peace sweet man, Memory Eternal Frank. With love, Dushie
