I've gotten to know Liz's dad thru Liz, and I know she's been blessed to have such a wonderful father and realizes the blessing of having his love and support during her life's journey all these years.  I'm sure all his family feels the same.

From a friend's perspective, I've had the pleasure of witnessing the bond of a loving father and his daughter and it's been a joy. All daughter's should be so blessed. I know this father will be missed, yet his legacy will carry on in all of his family and even his friends--that's what heroes do.

For all family and friends grieving the loss of Mr. Frank Dial, I pray the comfort of the Holy Spirit abounds, especially during this time and may that comfort continue with each and every memory of Mr. Frank.

My dear friend Liz, the great comforter will never forsake you and your heavenly Father will always be there to carry you through...you know His promises will be fulfilled. Jesus continues to shine forth through you, even during this time in your life.  Continue to lean on Him. ...and remember to always celebrate your father's life in living yours to the fullest!

Peace, Love, Joy and Blessings,

Susan Langhi

Deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.  I only met cousin Frank once but I can still remember his wonderful smile.  Frank was a favorite of my mom and dad, Nancy Dial Harriss and Paige.  Hope we can meet soon.
You are in our prayers for peace and comfort.

Please accept the condolences from a distant relative ---Katherine's daughter Sarah in Canada.
Being so far away I did not have the pleasure of most of my  relatives. I do have my fathers hard long written genealogy that I cherish and am amazed at.  A long line of many stories to remind us how fortunate we are.   Blessings and Comfort to you all.

Sam, Teddi and family:  We extend to you our condolences.  Lolann and I will remember you in our prayers.

I have nothing but found memories of Frank and Betty and their children.  Remember playing basketball in the drive with Frank and his siblings.

Mr Frank will be dearly missed. He was precious to us all. Prayers to his family in thesr hard times.

I will never forget Mr. Frank's smile.  He was truly one of the nicest people I have ever had the pleasure to call my friend. Rest in peace, Mr. Frank. You will be missed. My thoughts and prayers to the Dial family.

Mr. Frank was a very special man and a true American Hero.  From the moment I met him I knew I stood before a great man.  He will always have a place in my heart.  Thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Another loss for America's Greatest Generation. All my best to the Dials from an old TRHS friend.

"Just great memories from the time we worked in the same company. You were always my Hero"

 Sending prayers and blessings to my Dial cousins.  It's been a very long time since we've seen each other but you've been in my heart and mind.  I've always remembered when Frank would pull into our driveway in West Frankfort with kids hanging out all the car windows.  You would have driven most of the day to get back to visit our big, extended family. My mom and dad, sisters and brothers adored Frank and his family.  "Dicky" still loves to talk about Frank.

Dearest Frank, you had a long life filled with the love and respect of everyone whose heart you touched.  I feel blessed to have known you and I'm so looking forward to renewing family bonds with your children and grandchildren this summer when our branch of Dials from all over the country will convene. We'll be telling stories about you and we'll be feeling your love and seeing your beautiful smile looking down upon us.  

Godspeed, sweet cousin.

I worked with Mr. Frank for 10 years you would loved to see his smile when he walked into work. He would always make you smile even when you were down. Rest Mr. Frank you work is done. You will be missed god has surely called a ture angel

Mr.Frank was a very special man. I had the honor to have worked with him for several years.I will never forget the many laughs we shared and all the family stories.Mr.Frank will always have a spot in my heart.He will never be forgotten.

Sam, Teddi, Liz, Maggie, Harry and Allison, Andrew, Little Sam,  I just heard about your dad and grandfather crossing over to the heavens.  He was such a sweetheart!!  It is a great loss to you, your family and friends.  I am celebrating with you the length of years that Our Father Blessed Him with.  I will be praying for comfort for each of you.  with love,  Doris

One thing I will always remember about Mr Frank (as he was affectionately called), if you told him your name once, he would never forget it. R.I.P Sir. I salute you!

I always admired my Uncle Frank.  He was larger than life to me.  And I know he was a great father.  I will remember him.  He was a very good baseball player, and I think that he played in the Chicago White Sox farm system for a year.  Then he was off to WWII as a bombardier in B-24s.  The air battles over Europe were terrifying and extremely dangerous.  He is a true hero.  In fact his service was a part of the motivation I had to go to the Air Force Academy and become a flyboy too. To Liz, Frank, Sam, Harry, Maggie, Andrew and Patrick: May the Lord Bless you, and keep you, and may His face shine upon you and give you peace.

Frank was a great guy and perfect gentleman who was liked by everyone. And a great veteran of our country.
