Frank was my brother and life long friend. He was a awesome son to his Mom andDad. We all had wonderful times when we were able to get together. Was kind and giving to his children and grandchildren. He always had a special place in his heart for our childhood spent in Willow Grove, Pa. He loved the out doors up there. After moving to Fort Lauderdale his love for the beach began. He liked to swim and fish .Our families spent countless years having diners on the beach.Frank was in the 82nd airborne division  and loved every minute of it.We loved to hear his stories from that time.

Uncle Frank will be missed but not forgotten. It would be impossible to share all the good childhood memories I had in this short space, but with Uncle Frank they were all good, and for that I am grateful. 

Thanks Uncle Frank for teaching me how to eat and enjoy Spinach!

God Speed,

Jeff & Tina Allen
