Oh Frank, I am so sad to hear of your passing. You were the first doctor that I ever worked with at Hall chiropractic in Austin Texas. You taught me to listen to my patience and I would always know what their bodies needed. You also turned me on to blues music for the very first time when you gave me a Bonnie Raitt album and said, you remind me so very much of her, listen to this and then we will have so much more to talk about throughout our days together. And you have never been more right! You were always such a sweet and kind man. And the one thought that comes to my mind when I think about you is that... you lived life to the fullest! I will miss you my friend in this world will be just a little sadder without you in it. But don’t you worry, I am carrying on your love and now my love because of you the blues music.Sleep with the angels my beautiful friend for you deserve it.

I just saw Frank's Obituary.  I wanted to express my deepest condolences to his family.  Frank and I went to school at St. Anthony's Elementary. The last time we met was while he was still practicing in San Antonio.  I have quite a few memories of him organizing and participating in playground activities during those years.  I will keep his family in my prayers..  Pat McKay Bastrop, TX

I met Frank at Texas Tech in 1971.  He was in the same dormitory.  He was one of my favorite people and I always wanted to get back in touch with him.  Everyone loved him.  You couldn't help it.  He wore petuli oil and you could smell him coming.  When I searched the internet to finally reconnect, I was very saddened to learn of his passing.  He was a tremendous athlete and we played lots of football and had some wonderful times.

I will always remember Frank as a fun loving free spirit, who never met a stranger.  He loved everyone, and was a joy to be around.  To his family and Peanuts, my sincere condolences.  I know you will always cherish the beautiful memories you shared.  May he rest in peace.

To The Siebenalers and Your Loved Ones,
 Judy and I were shocked and saddened to learn today of Frank's passing. 
In 1964 I was stationed at Fort Wolters, Texas and came to San Antonio to visit Uncle Frank and Aunt Louise and their family.  Frank was there and calculating the ten year age difference, he must have been about 11.  The next time we connected was the few years before Aunt Louise's passing.  I introduced him to my wife Judy, and of course he hugged her and said "Why not.  Isn't she Mrs. Frank Siebenaler?"  That started a wonderful evening of fun with Frank.
We send our deepest sympathies to all of you.
Frank and Judy Siebenaler

You were a kind, funny, energetic, inspiring, loving friend! I met you on the dance floor, and we continued to dance and play throughout our years as friends. You will be greatly missed; a light like yours doesn't shine on us every day! You are a blessing! Shine on!

We want to express our sympathy to Frank's family and will remember all of you in our prayers. It would have been wonderful to have gotten to know Frank over the years, but somethings just do not happen! To Frank's siblings, we hope someday we can celebrate together, and kindle friendships that have been put aside. God bless you all!

Dr. Frank will be greatly missed by me. Not only for his unique chiropractic techniques, his smile was contagious. I am proud to have known such a big hearted individual. My condolences to the family.  Frank always updates me on how Jai, Amar, and Kiki were doing. Big hugs to y'all. Silvia call me if you need anything. He went to early for us, I guess God wanted an adjustment!

He was such a fun guy to be around.  Never a dull moment.  Sorry he is gone!

Frank, Dr. Siebenaler, was a wonderful boss and a dear friend. He and Sylvia walked me through some of the toughest moments in life, and I am blessed to have known him. Wishing I could be in ATX this weekend to celebrate the life of this extraordinary man. You will be remembered fondly.

For twelve years I was married to this redheaded handsome man with a scathingly sarcastic well-honed sense of humor, a trait I always thought showed intelligence. We divorce amicably 25 years ago. I told him we better be friends because we're going to be at the same graduation ceremonies and weddings and baby showers for the rest of our lives. 
Currently I am in India and when I heard about Frank's untimely passing, I was shocked and devastated regarding the impact his death will have on our three children and Sammy, who called him "Grandfather". Lucky for FaceTime I have spoken to them several times. 
On Saturday in Taos New Mexico at the Neem Karoli Baba Ashram and Hanuman Temple, where Frank visited many times, there will be the singing of eleven Hanuman Chalisas in honor of Frank's passing, followed by prasad (blessed sweets). Additionally, at the Neem Karoli Ashram here in Kainchi Dham in the Himalayas, on Sunday, the twelfth day after his passing, the ashram is planning a special bhandara in Frank's honor, with kheer (sweet rice). 

My dear Ankfray, thank you for your gift of our three children. But I will miss you at the weddings and christening. (Ankfray is what I usually called Frank, it is his name in Pig Latin.) 

I always bragged about him that he never divorced his kids.
As they say in Sanskrit when someone dies:
Ram Nam Satya Hain, Satya Bol Gatya Hain.
(God's name is true, truly this person has gone to God.)
Frank's spirit went to the light. I saw it clear as day.
Frank J. Siebenaler, Jr. ki Jai! Hooray for a life well lived!!

The last time we were together, we talked about life and the universe. We both agreed that humans are just compact little bundles of energy, which, once we pass on, diffuse back into the universe from whence we came. How serendipitous that we had this conversation so recently and now you have moved on. So while your physical presence is gone and I will miss those times you made me laugh so hard I snorted, I will always feel you around me. You are in the clouds and the lake. You are in the light when I look at the stars and in the blades of grass. You are in the wind against my face, a cool breeze on a summer day. You are a friend that will never be forgotten. You have left but you are not gone.

Wish I would have known him more than by name since he is about my same age.  We will get to know each other in heaven.  We are so sorry for your loss.

Family of Frank: so sorry for your loss...I have the fondest memories of Alan, Donald and Phyllis along with Uncle Frank and Aunt Louise...Peggy Louise Siebenaler...Child of  Alex Siebenaler and Olivia Kronebusch Siebenaler.
May Frank rest in peace.

"Frankie, we hardly knew ye." Thanks for making the CCHS '71 B-Ball squad a fun team to be on.

Frank was a friend for more than 50 years. From playing football together at St. Anthony grade school to Varsity basketball at Central, Frank was a competitor. Our families spent Thanksgiving together throughout our childhood. Although Paul and I were actually best friends, Frank would always be in the mix of whatever trouble Paul and I
I were up to. Perhaps my fondest memory of Frank was his great sense of humor and contagious laugh!

My deepest sympathy goes out to Donald, Alan, Phyllis, John and Paul on the lost of your brother. Peace be with you.

Tom Parish

Let me (the editor) quote from the Dec 18, 1970, edition of the Central Pep. While the headline was that our Buttons had won the school's very first state title, a recap of the Semi-final game against El Paso Jesuit went like this: 
"The first of four Button touchdowns came early when R. Valero made an interception and Steve Calderon connected on a 35 yard pass to Frank Siebenaler.....Jerry Karam gladly recovered a Jesuit fumble. This sparked the team as 4 plays later they found pay dirt  on a Calderon to Siebenaler 17 yard aerial...Steve Calderon bounced a lateral to Barbatto on the right side who stood still; the Jesuit defenders halted figuring it was an incomplete pass. John Barbatto confidently fired a bomb to Frank Siebenaler who was all alone...  65 yards and boosted the final talley to 27-0."

Frank, my friend, you never let this get to your red head, you were truly classy.  We will miss you dearly and miss your smile at our next reunion. God bless you and your family. We'll see you in heaven. 

Central Alumni Class of 1971

Dr. Frank I will miss you and your wonderful humor and smile.
Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

Frank you will be missed by all of us. You were such a great friend and you touched so many lives and left a lasting impact on everyone. May you always rest in peace and my thoughts and prayers are with your family. God Bless you always from your fellow Central Alumni Class of 79.

My deepest sympathy to family and friends!  Dr. Frank's brought so much sunshine to all he met!!  He will be deeply missed!
