Lyn I am so sorry to her about your husband. I hope that you are o.k. I am but a phone call away. There are no words that can take your pain away. Remember you are in my prayers. Love Shirley Knight SHIRLEY A. KNIGHT 2009-01-15 06:20:26

I'm very sad to hear that Frank passed away. He was my first "boss" over twenty years ago and really taught me a lot about responsibility and leading by example. He never asked us to do anything he wouldn't do and he worked harder than anyone else. My sincerest condolences to Frank's family. Kelly Manley 2009-01-15 10:29:02

Lyn, I am so sorry to hear about Frank. Steve called me. He was a good, hard working man who really cared about his job. I had heard of his retirement but there was no mention of his illness. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your daughters. Martin Coggins Martin Coggins 2009-01-18 14:52:33
