Hey D.S. Long time. I was sad to hear about Frank too. One of the few people I ever knew with no malice in his heart. Its almost strange too, he passed within a couple months of D.K. Take care.
I went to school with Frank, he made me laugh every day. I mean falling down, crawling, crying till your face hurt from laughing! He was a good person, what a shame.
