To Rita,
Although I let years get away from me I’ll always remember how kindly you and Frank were to me in the 80’s. Being part of Clockwork’s crew was a great experience. Stephanie and I are very sorry for your loss.

Dear Rita, We are so sorry and heartbroken for you. We have only wonderful memories of you and Frank during the time we shared laughs while traveling and partying in the Abacos. We still use the wine opener that Frank gave Bob for Xmas that year, and Bob always says, “Frank gave that to us; what a fun time we had with them”.
We send our sincerest sympathies to you and your family. You both will remain in our hearts forever. Love,
Ann Miller and Bob Halter

It was a shock to read of Frank’s passing in Watts News. I had worked with him in Engineering as did my husband Bob Oldham. We have many fond memories of his soft spoken kindness & his many sailing lessons in Solomon’s. Please accept our sincerest condolences for all his family. He was a treasure.
