I was interested in reconnecting with Frank after 20 years. We had such great times in Austin. Both music lovers, he made me a tape called "FrankenStan" which I still have. I'm so saddened to learn of his passing. I can still see his wry smile. My heart also goes out to his parents. He loved them dearly.

I just wanted to let all of Frank's family know how much he is loved and how often he spoke about his love for you. He was so excited to become an Uncle and always spoke to me about how he looked forward to seeing his family when ever he went home. I found him to be a loyal, loving friend. He always made me laugh. And he always impressed me with his intelligence and creativity. Please know he was loved by many people I'm sure you never met. And I am sad for us all because I know I will miss him.

I am so very sorry to hear about Frank's passing. Frank and I were friends from Dallas and we saw a lot of each other when I lived in NYC. Frank was funny, sweet, adorable and yet so very serious. We lost touch in the last 2 years and more than anything I wish I could turn the clock back so that I could see his smile or hear his laugh. I have some great photos of Frank: my 2 favorites are one with the actress Linda Gray and one at the top of Twin Peaks here in SF. I will always treasure the time I got to spend with Frank. He was one of the lights of my life. I will miss him more than anyone can realize. I want to extend my deepest sympathies to his family and express my profound sense of loss at his passing. I hope Frank found the peace he was searching for.

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Kathy and I will keep you and your family in our prayers. God bless and confort you in this time of sorrow.

Jim & Bonnie, Our sincere sympathy to you and your family in the loss of your son. We can only imagine your sorrow, but you are in our thoughts and prayers. Jeannine & Bob Engberg

I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to the Hinkel Family. May God bless you and provide with comfort and strength during this time of sadness. God Bless

Jim & Bonnie, Please accept our earnest sympathies for the loss of your son. Kevin & Bettie Lee

We're very sorry to hear of the loss of your son. It's very hard for a parent to bear the loss of a child. Please know that God is always there for you and for all who have to bear such a loss. Please know that, in time, when you eventually see God yourself, you will also be reunited with your son.
