Frank was such a great guy and felt like part of our family.  We will always have fond memories of the times we all shared at the lake.  He was an excellent fisherman and a great friend.  Always the first to lend a hand and cheerfully pitch in on any project.  His broad smile and happy demeanor were always a joy to be around.  He was very dear to our family and we are all happy to have known him.  From the family of Lucille Moore to the Wampler Family and all of Frank's loved ones, we express our sincere condolences.  

Rick and family, I’m so sorry for your loss but know you’ll always have loving memories of Frank.  He was a kind and funny man and l’ll remember him fondly.  Sincerest condolences.

Frank was always a joy to work with at the funeral home.  He always had a big smile as he greeted everyone at the door.  I enjoyed his stories of his family and his church.  Frank was a precious man.  He will be missed.  Thanks for all the good memoires Frank.

Dad,

You are the most important man that has ever entered into my life. You taught me so much about life, not only by your words but more importantly by your actions. I have tried to live my life the way you taught me, and I hope that you felt proud of me. You were the toughest person that I have known. You NEVER gave up and always fought till the end. You endured so much and overcame so much. You showed us what love is by your devotion to Mom. You were her anchor! Thanks for sacrificing so much for her, especially during those tough years leading to her passing. I will always remember how you taught me how to pitch, hit and fish, but most of all, how to be a good person. This, I have tried to teach my children. 

Our fishing trips were legendary! I still couldn't out fish you! Thanks for love, friendship, and devotion! We will miss you tremendously.  Share eternity with Mom and we will be united as a family in the years to come!
Love you Dad!

Frank was a familiar face at the LUMC functions.  Although not a member of the church, I frequently was fortunate to see him at different functions.  I will never forget that he once made his own special cheesecake for me when he knew I would be able to come.  I was so deeply touched, and it was one of the best surprises I had ever received.  I loved Frank and will miss him, as will my husband, who used to keep Frank  company, solving the problems of the city while the rest of us just sat around and gabbed!  My deepest sympathy for your family’s loss.

Dad,
In all my years of growing up, you were there to teach me all the things I would need later in Life. You coached my Little League Baseball teams, came to all of my football games, even the Indpls Bears Football Games, you were there. I cant remember it all Dad, but what I do remember the most is that you were a tough guy, a determined man, and taught me what it was like to be a responsible man, a hardworking man, and to be respectful of others. You were the Grandfather to my only daughter Amanda, and got to see your Granddaughters before you left us. 
Thank you Dad for the life you gave me, and thank you for the opportunity to be a part of yours.   I Love you Dad !
Rick   

I used to work occasionally with Frank at Feeney Hornak when he would work a service.  He was such a sweet man and was so funny!
Rest in peace Frank.


Uncle Frank as I knew him was a wonderful man who loved Pam Benslay as she cared for him through the years. Sorry for you loss. He was a Canasta ledgend!

Never know a sweeter man.  He always encouraged me in regards to my singing. When we had Saturday night worship, he baked my favorite cake for my birthday.  Frank you will missed. 

Great childhood memories with you all and your fun dad.  Prayers for all the family. Rest in heaven Frank tell momma and dad hello for me.
