So sorry for your loss. Frank will be greatly missed. Hugs and Prayers for all family and friends. I remember years ago, my husband and I stopped by to look at some puppies you were giving away. We brought our two sons and Frank said,” You know its only right that you get each boy a puppy'”. We ended up with a Ginger and a Midge! They were the best dogs! I will always remember that. Rest in Peace Frank.
