I always felt welcome to visit and when I worked overseas I did. We all got snowed in, I forget the name of the lake and mountain the cabin was on but it was fun and I got some extra time off. I worked in Micronesia on a missile range as a contracted civilian. It was always 90 degrees with about a 40 percent chance of rain. So being in the snow for those extra few days was a real treat.

When I finally got married I didn't seem to be able to find the time to be in the same place as they were, but I wanted to. I was sad to hear my uncle passed away. But the memories are great. Thank you for being  my uncle, I love you.

Frank, Joann, and Wayne White came to visit us a few years ago.  We had a great visit and we enjoyed spending time with them;  Talked about old times and families.  We send our sympathy to all of you.  Eppie Wayland Mason and Gaylord Mason.

Frank has always held a special place in my heart.  When he was Principal of the "Acton Junior High," I was his secretary.  We enjoyed a great working relationship.  I'll never forget the time he and Joann gave me two tickets to take a friend to the Antelope Valley Fairgrounds to see a country and western star.  I took my mother who remembers it to this day!  Thank you Frank for the precious memories.

Frank was a wonderful man, husband & father, & grandfather.  My thoughts & prayers are with my cousin Joann & her family.  Linda Oldenberg, Bloomer, WI

My love and prayers are with Aunt Joann, Mark and Bob and  their families as well as his friends. Because of their Illinois visits we did develop a relationship and I loved my Uncle Frank very much. He was a wonderful, loving man as well as a great educator. Wishing that I was not so far away, I send a big long distance hug to the family.

My Uncle Frank held a very special place in my heart. I didn't get to see him often, but I certainly thought of him often. He was a great man. He was always so good to my mother and his other two sisters. My thoughts and prayers are with Aunt Joann, Mark, Bob and their families. He will be missed. I know he is with God, his parents and siblings now and they are very happy.

Sending our love to the Wayland family, especially Aunt Joann, Mark & Bobby.  Thinking of and praying for all of you and wishing we didn't live so far away from each other.  My brother, Tedd, sure looks a lot like Uncle Frank in the photo here.  My mother always said he looked like a Wayland.  Now I really know why!

Uncle Frank was a dear, sweet man. I will remember him fondly for his life of service to others, especially his committments to youth and community. He provided an inspiring example for all of us. Sending love and hugs to California...May God hold you tightly in the palm of His Hand.
