    So sorry to hear about Frank. I was also a classmate of his. He was such a fun guy. I last saw him at a funeral of another classmate, Wayne Wyckoff. Was able to have a nice visit with him. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family...Judi (Fitzpatrick) Spence

    I am very sad to hear of Frank's passing. He was my boss for awhile at First of America and he was a great boss. Always fair and funny, never a dull moment and always a pleasure to work with. Frank will be greatly missed.

    Dear Jane, I was so sorry to hear of your loss of Frank. I was Personnel Director at the time Frank started at the bank and he was our first Programmer at AB&T when I hired him. I have many great memories of our time together at AB&T until I moved to Kalamazoo in 1984. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

    Oh how we will miss "our Frankie"! He was one in a million and we will always remember his kindness. He was a "right-hand" man to our #3531 Eagles Auxiliary gals! We all loved him for who he was! He will surely be sadly missed by the entire Aerie #3531 Frateral Order of Eagles!! God rest, Frankie! Our sincere condolences to your entire family!!

    I am so sorry to just hear of Frank's passing. He was always a gentleman. I loved talking sports with him. I would tease him about his beloved Spartans and he would kid me about my Packers. I will miss him...he was such a good neighbor. After my knee surgery, he would help me to my car. Just heard about his passing today. I suspected something was not right these past few weeks.

    Sincerely
