Frank was one in a million!
I wanted to express my sympathy to Frank’s wife Becky and their children, I’m sure Frank will be missed. I met Frank at West Shell and he was so sweet and willing to help, it was always great to get caught up when we ran into each other over the years. It was just such a pleasure to have known such a gentle and kind person. Cindy Brouillette
A distinguished co worker
Frank was a man of integrity and respect. He maintained a witness for Christ in his day to day interaction with all walks of life. I enjoyed our conversations and seeing him laugh. His dignity will be missed in our family here at Coldwell Banker.
