I wish I had seen you more before you left us, Frank. I think the last time we spoke was at the dump on Harrison Rd. You wanted to meet up to shoot pool sometime and of course I was always too busy. I should have made more time for my family and I wish I had taken you up on it. I miss you. I haven't seen Laura or Sonny or Stephanie since you passed because I have a hard time thinking that you're not around. Please watch over them and help keep them strong. I'll never forget your humor and your kindness towards me. I never understood why you liked me so much but I was thankful and I'm thankful to have known you. Til we meet again...

Thank you for teaching me to play poker. We always had fun doing that. I will forever miss your biscuit gravy, potato soup and many other delicious foods you made. I miss you and hope to see you again one day. Sorry for sneaking out the house so much and causing trouble back in the day. I miss all the good times we all had. Spending Christmas Eve at y'all's house and having Christmas with y'all. I miss you and I will love you forever. Frank you are very loved and missed. <3

Thank you for all the bananas on that day I was just a hungry baby, whether you feed me too much or not you were right there along side my dad as a team with one goal, to make sure I was cared for and I think you for that. I'm sure that everyday my dad feeds his grandchildren he thinks back to that day and especially now misses his baby feeding buddy. I'm sorry we didn't hang out more, we really should have, but it was good seeing you that one last time. Love you and miss you.

Miss my dad. So many things to list. One is I cannot watch UFC MMA fights without seeing a great fight and first reaction is to call him.to let him know not to miss it. Or him.calling me and I have to tell him not to tell me who won yet , cause he just had to tell , lol.
I hate seeing the tears in my mom's eyes, I hate being glad that you are no longer in pain , but also upset that mom.is in so much pain and despair from.missing you.
I know you always thought "people" didn't care. WE CARED & WE CARE and nothing is the same without you and family benefitted more having you with us then they do with me, I should've been first. You were a hard guy, a hard father, but you also had a soft and caring side. After I became a dad, and getting older, I understood a lot more of how you were , who you were, and why. And it made me realize you were even a stronger man, husband, and father than I. All you went through, all the constant struggles in your mind, to not be like those parents and adults were when you were a child.
I think you for that. Thank you for always putting our wants and needs, grandchildren wants and needs first. You and Mom made great parents, great team. So many have told me that they wished they had y'all as their parents. And I know whenever you got mad, got on me, it was because you cared , it was out of love. I thank you for that. For caring. You should be here longer. You should be with mom. Love you Dad.

Frank, I don't ever remember not knowing you. Through all the years you never changed. You told it like it is and could spin a story like no one else. We all miss you but your family most of all. RIP Frank. ..

I never met Frank. I worked with his wife Laura. That man knew how to send flowers. He would send flowers just because. Laura must have gotten 10 bouquets of flowers a year.

When we lived in partlow , forgot how old I was, maybe 8-10. Lisa & Dean came for a visit with their new baby, Thomas (TJ). Well, my mom (Laura ) & Lisa decided to go to the store or a food run, I don't remember, but I guess wanted some 1 on 1 girl time and decided the little baby woukd be fine with new father Dean and crazy father Frank for a hour or two......Lol
After they left, everything was good for a few minutes until the baby started crying, and since no cell phones and Google existed, it was up to them to put heads together and find out why.
I think by the time Lisa and Laura got back , they had wrapped a towel or pillow case around the baby when they couldn't find diapers or get the diaper on. They started grabbing food to feed the baby when didn't have a bottle or know how to make one I'm not sure, but was only a few months old lol.
Finally bananas made the baby happy, think they fed the baby 2 or 3 of them lol. By the time Lisa and Laura got back, baby was wearing pillow case or towel for a diaper, koolaide stains, banana mushed all over the baby's mouth, face, and they were trying to play it cool like it was all under control the whole time but could clearly tell they were panicked, sweating, and in awe at how they were able to care for babies all day everyday lol.
And always wondered, whether he would grow up loving or hating bananas from that night lol
(They may remember better details, what I remember as a kid) lol.
